I know we all have a few different ones, but which ones get to come out and play most often?
My father gave me a 300 Win Mag very early on which was my primary hunting rifle for decades. I have retired that rifle because it didn't like the switch to the higher pressures of this new copper ammo we have to use. I replaced it with a Winchester Model 70 in same caliber, but I am actually using a 30.06 most often.
I have a real nice Winchester 70 Supergrade I bought for my son, and a Ruger M77 Hawkeye stainless/synthetic, both 30.06, and they get into the field very frequently. The Winchester has a Bushnell Elite 4200 4x12x40 and the Ruger has a Nikon Monarch 4x10x42. Good solid performers. The Ruger is an absolute laser.
The shotgun I use is a Rem 870. It is bulletproof and versatile. I would like a nice over/under, but just cannot justify the cash.
I very recently got a Henry AR7 and it is awesome! 4 bunnies in 4 shots on the first day playing with it.
What are your favorites, and which ones actually get into the field the most?
