I have several rifles. I would have to say that my favorite for deer is my .280 Remington.

.270 or .30-06 are the best two guns for deer hunting. I have one of each they both have their advantages. The .270 goes faster, but the .30-06 goes farther and bigger round. They are both good guns. .308 is not bad and a .243.

so true, but ya know, the remington 6mm Mag is just a pleasureable flat long range pick-um-off gun. knock down power it is a little light, but when you are 1/2 - 3/4 mile away shooting at a slow moving or still critter, I think I would take percision over hammer.

I would say if you know your gun well enough, and you have honed your skills to the point you are profitient then that is all you need,

personaly for a long range gun I dont think you can get better than a remington 6mm mag with a 7x12 redfeild wide angle. unless you go military, "sniper" (sory, cant remember or wont tell make, modle, caliber)

Big fan of redfield as well,[angelic]

I totally agree with you if you have a gun and you are really good, most of the time it does not matter what type of gun you have or caliber.

I use a Remington Model 700 synthetic 30'06 with 165 gr. Fusion boattails. The best bullet i have found yet.
My muzzleloader is a Winchester Apex .50 cal with a Tru-Glo red-dot scope. As a matter of fact, i am leaving right now for the evening hunt with it.[cool]

For white tails i prefer either a 25-06 or a .308. The 25-06 i shot of my buddies had little recoil and it was one of the most accurate guns ive ever shot, not to metion the blistering 3200 FPS muzzle velocity.

In close work gets a Remington model 8 in 35Rem w/200gr soft points or Hornadays 200gr LeverRevolution flex-tips ... Iron sights

Anything with open shooting gets an A-bolt with 7mm Rem Mag in either 160/175gr Trophy Bonded Bear Claws... elite 3200.

I was out window shopping for a 44 mag the other day, and the shop owner showed me a little ruger 454 super red hawk.

sure felt nice in the hand. it had a rubber handle non slip. scope mount aready on it.

I will deffenantly concider that gun should a couple bucks find its way in to my pocket.

nice little hot round, bigger than a 410 but not as big as a 16 gage.

6mm Rem Mag.

100 grain sierra Boat tail, IMR 4350 powder.

I have this rifle dialed in and it is deadly! It doubles as My P.dog gun in Wyoming when I have to buck the wind and my 22.250 wont handle it.

My deer gun is Ruger bisley 44 mag if the shots are 100 and under.
If I am stalking the open country Ill switch up to my kimber in 308 with winchester light magnums..
If I go muzzle hunting I like my hawken 50 cal with a green mountain barrel.
