BHC Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 When it comes to production hunting rifles what is your favorite? I have two: Winchester Model 70 Pre-64 Sako model Hunter both in .30-06, love that caliber, but so many other calibers to choose from. I also have a Remington 700 BDL SS in .300 Win Mag, great gun but the quality isn't like the Pre-64 or the Sako Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BHC Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 Savage rifles are like Mossberg shotguns, they are not the best looking guns, they may even feel sloppy, but they get the job done, and take a beating. My friend's wife wants to get into hunting, they live hunt in Northern Florida, I told him last week look into a Savage in 7mm-08 for her, perfect deer caliber with little recoil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palawman30 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Remington 760 in 30-06 and .35... nothing better than a sweet fast sweet fast shooting 760 during bear season while putting on a drive PredaTorch.com Hot Estrous Doe and Other Deer Scent, Night Predator Lights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flat9999 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Lately. Weatherby Ultralightweight in .257 Wby mag. Mine did have some work done: Cerakote, pillar and glass bedding, trigger job, free floating barrel, etc. Light, impervious to the elements, flat shooting, accurate, little recoil. It's my go-to gun for any animal up to the 500lb. range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tika270 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Tikka t3 lite in .270 D-D... Nothing like a warm barrel. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucksnbows Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Winchester model 70 pre-'64 action in 7 mm Rem. mag. A real tack driver for a reasonable sum, topped with a nice Leupold. https://www.troutscapes.com/ https://nativefishcoalition.org/national-board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BHC Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 Remington 700 is & has been a great rifle & action and will continue to do so. I own one but can't compare to a Sako or the Winchester pre 64 in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
