bowhunt101 Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Just wondering what kind of rifle everybody will be shooting for the most part this season and if you bought another one what would it be???? For me Im shooting a trusty ol Remington 30-06 Bolt Action (model 700 ADL) with a Simmons 3-9x40 scope and it works really well. At 100 yards my bullets are within a halfinch of eachother. If I bought another gun though I would probobly get either a 7mmWSM or a 30-06 of some kind. 30-06 is plenty of gun to be shooting deer with and will get the job done without kicking the mortal tar out of ya know what I mean???? I got a 3 1/2" 12 gauge that taught me that lesson and I decided 3" will killem just as dead.... But as far as brands go a Remington or Browning would suit me fine and the reason I would consider a 7WSM is cus Ive heard so many good things about the WSM rifles just have to try it out sooner or later....

Guest bronco_mudder Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Re: What rifle you shooting and what you wanna get This year I'll still be using my Tikka 695 in 7mm Rem mag. for deer. I've got a project on the go for next year, its a 25/06 AI. The 27" stainless Shilen barrel is already mated to a Ruger 77 action. I'm just in the process of getting McMillan stock for it to finish it off. I'm going to top it with a Nikon Monarch 3.5-10X50 scope. I thought I'd use my other semi custom 25/06 for deer, but its very heavy to carry. Its a Remington 700 action with a 28" varmint weight stainless Lothar Walther barrel. This one will just be for at the range, and the occasional gopher shoot. It's topped with a 6-24 Burris Signature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Re: What rifle you shooting and what you wanna get I doubt I will be able to take a rifle out this year. If I get out in gun season, I will probably have the ML due to county regs not my choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
