PICTURE THREAD: Post your go to hunting rifle

I'm sure most of us have more than one hunting gun, but every hunter I know has a gun that they have a special connection with... the one that you prefer over all the others...

this thread is to show off that gun.

Below is mine

Her name is Katie. She's a Browning Stainless Stalker in .308 wearing her preferred accessory, a 3.5-10x50 Zeiss Conquest scope...

I have lots of guns, and all of them are for sale... except Katie

Remington 700 Sendero SF 300 Ultra Mag
Swarvoski 6x18x50

i love those fluted barrels... very nice gun you have there sir... that glass is VERY impressive!!

Mine is my ORC. 100% reliable, take can off to deer hunt with, and being a 308 can stop nearly any animal in North America. Very accurate as well.

how do you like that Accupoint? i had one for a while on my LAR8... very impressive in low light.

Kuddos on picking the right caliber 308 is clearly the best caliber out there.. FAR superior to 30-06 and .270

My new go to
257wby SPS stainless


My still all time favorite
25-06

Remington 700 SPS .270 with a Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20, Jewell Trigger set at 2 lbs, H-S Precision stock.

Just adjusted my jewell up to two lbs...factory was a little scary.

Completely different feel than a factory Remington though. Is that speed goat one of those $50,000 damage control goats?

Check sig.

No that one had a "I can keep him tag"...don't have a stomach anymore for the "none keep or touch tags"

LOVE, the accupoint. Its the perfect low light, and night scope as well. I had a 1x4 on this rifle before, but the light gathering sucks compared to the 40mm. I originally got this scope, because I was sick of losing a black reticle in a black hog at night. Ended up loving this scope, took a deer with it this year too. They are built real tough too. MY ORC took a spill out of a 14 foot tripod months ago. The Troy rail gave out (changed that now as well too), but the ADM mount, and Accupoint were still right on the money.

Wish they made one for browning... love my jewell, like my dad's timneys... Although my 243 has the older worked over trigger and its nice..

Any one want to buy a 3.5lb x-mark trigger?

Dang JCB, did you shoot that gobler with your .300?

naw he just showed it to him and he fell over dead

LOL, now this is funny!!!!

I have several "go to" guns, as I wouldnt own a gun that wasnt accurate. But if I had to choose, it would be my Sendero SF II in 25-06 with a VX-3 30mm tube 4.5-14x50

Yes.

Later that week the Game Wardens came out to do a theft investigation on the lease and they found where I shot the Turkey. They asked if I knew anything about all the feathers in that area and I told them I had shot the Turkey. His response was something along the lines of "must have been a big gun".

If you hit them high in the neck or back you wont do any damage to the meat and its a quick kill as well.

My Kampfeld Custom .300 Win Mag for me
Swaro PH 4x16x50




Remington 7/08 for my daughter
Zeiss 3x9x40

Husqvarna .30-06

Benelli R1 Carbine 30-06, Trijicon 2.5-10x56



This rifle does it all well, but the ability to routinely hit running targets like I know what I'm doing (which I don't!) is what makes me love this rifle!
