All my shots are close, so either a Winchester 1905 or a Rem 14. No real preference which to grab first, but I keep both in the truck while hunting in case one fails.

I'd ask him if he's pregnant. He missed a s__tload of periods. I'll take "things that look like a uterus" for $200 Alex.

My primary is a Rem 7mm08 my back ups are a Win Mod 70 300 WSM, Ruger M77 7mm Mag or a Tikka T3 Lite 25 06 but not necessarily in that order just depends on which one I want to carry we I leave the house to hunt.

My primary gun since I was a kid is my trusty old Winchester .30-30. Now that I'm on a lease where some shots are considerably longer, I have a Ruger 77 .300 Win Mag, and a Ruger .22-250 for varmints and pigs.
