I plan on putting the Nikon .308 scope with the BDC reticle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbHunterNY Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 only choosing from rifles i own.... varmints.... savage model 12, thumbhole laminate stock, stainless action/barrel, 223 Rem; so accurate it gives you ridiculous confidence. i've cloverleafed shots at 200 yards. for deer...... browning abolt stainless hunter in 30-06; handles better than any other bolt action rifle i've set my hands on. it doesn't shoot much better than 1.5 moa with what ammo i've tried but it handles so well it doesn't matter.

Shaun_300 Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Man, so hard to pick just one of my rifles, I like them all equally! Each serve their own purpose though. I have an old Browning FN .220 Swift I love target shooting and varmint hunting with. For a 1956 rifle it looks and shoots like it's right out of the box brand new. Drives tacks! I have a Ruger M77 Mark II .25-06 Remington I also like target shooting with because of the accuracy. Also use it for deer when I'm hunting in open fields and pests. For big game, moose and deer I use a Browning BLR .300 WSM, I love that rifle. Nice and light, short action magnum caliber, fast shooting and very accurate. Very nice rifle to carry around the bush deer hunting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Go to gun for deer hunting has been my remington model 700 in .270 topped with nikon monarch 3-9x40. Oldest daughter has in the past couple years claimed that gun for hers though, she takes it over her browning a bolt every time I let her. Think I am gonna have to buy a new model 700, should have just enough time to get it broke in good for my boy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubleA Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 I lose interest pretty fast and dont have favorites, but I would say the current one(s) that I am building. Just got these completely finsihed, a fast twisted 243 Win and a 6.5x55 Mauser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cole14bowhunting Posted March 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 what's your favorite rifle? Dang those must be a REALLY expensive guns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy778 Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Those are nice doubleA. I would have to say my favorite because of the meaning behind it is the SKS my Dad gave to me. He took it off a dead Viet Kong Soldier after he killed him in Viet Nam. It has the gun cleaning kit, blood letting bayonet and original sling still.

Hungry Horse Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Double AA long time no see or hear. Was it on www.huntingnet.com or www.huntingresource.com/ when we chatted ? Beautiful custom builds there, love the digital camo, is that a dipped film coating? Who did that for you? In regards to the OP question on favorite rifles, I enjoy my Rem Mod 722 in 222 Rem and 10 X Leupold for varmits. I also have a Herters J9 sporterized mauser 6mm Rem for deer and coyotes. My go to rifle right now is a LH Rem Mod 700 30/06 with a Redfield 3x9. There have been several new used purchases that have not made it to the range yet, A Tikka T3 .300 WSM with Burris 4.5x14x42 BDC scope purchased for my son. It has a Colo 5x6 elk to it's credit. A Browning A Bolt hunter LH .300 WSM with Nikon Pro Staff 3x9x50, and Browning Medallion LH 7mm WSM with a Nikon Monarch 3x12 x42 which needs rings lapped and mounted and last but not least a LH Browning A Bolt SS Stalker .338 Win mag with a Nikon 3x12x42 BDC reticle, needing rings lapped and mounted. Hope those last 4 do well on the rifle range and western elk hunts. Also picked up a Ruger Super Redhawk SS 44 mag with red dot scope for carrying while scouting elk in grizzly bear country. Although they say Pepper Spray is the best medicine for surprise attacks, the big 240 gr JHP gives me greater sense of "real safety" ! I do carry pepper spray on hikes in the wstern NP's, Glacier, GTNP and Yellowstone. Last time I had a grizz at 20 yds taking photos, the pepper spray was in the backpack in the Suv, LOL, not good ! Glad he and I showed mutual respect for each other that day ! My gut feeling is the Browning Hunter LH 300 WSM or the 7mm WSM will be my new long range favorites. Previous owner said the Browning .300 WSM gave a 1" group at 200 yds. Looking forward to some range time. Good hunting folks. :cowboy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hungry Horse Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 Strut 10 Thank you, I was a memeber a long time ago also, apparently if we are idle a long time, we get disconnected from the membership. I have a Pa friend whose last name is Strut and loves turkey huinting. I am in Beaver county, Chippewa area, where are you Stut 10. Colo Silvertip is a chat friend of mine. Again, thank you for the warm welcome. HH in Pa :cowboy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkneck Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 I'd likely have to pick my 1894 Winchester 30-30. It's just a beauty of a gun, looks like it tamed the west lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleA Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 Welcome to the RT forums Hungry Horse, Yes it was probably one of those. Looks like you have things covered well. Dont chat as much anymore. RealTree has one here but there are only small number that use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hungry Horse Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Double A thank you for the welcome as well as Cole 14. AA I think we met originally on huntingnet.com chat then again on huntingresource. Yes I have been in Realtree chat here a few times, only a few folks were there. Strut 10, I used to hunt Indiana county a lot when younger on SGL 174 near Urey. Drove up RT 422 to Indiana then Rt 286 to Glen Campbell, I actually had relatives in Glen Campbell then. Unfortunately they have passed away. I miss hunting that area. Good hunting all !:boo::cowboy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
