    It all depends on what I'm doing at the time, elk and/or moose, bear, etc. .45/70, deer sized game my Marlin .30-.30, Henry BB .45 caliber, rabbit/squirrel .22 rimfire bolt action or, if I'm feeling particularly lazy .410 caliber pump action shotgun all with iron sights.

    Rem. 760 in 6MM. Dad bought me this rifle new in '85 to start my hunting career in '86. Even though I bought a Rem. 700 in .270 in my late teens, I still find plenty of opportunities each hunting season to take it for a walk.

    The 6MM cartridge is a sweet one to shoot, and it easily gets the job done on deer.

    My favorite rifle is a Mauser 71/84 in 11mm mauser, all original milsurp 8 round tubemag boltaction, makes a 45-70 look like a 45colt. If I can see it I will hit it. Coyote, deer, hog.
    It is the original shoulder cannon.
    My backup rifle would be a model 36, not 336, marlin in 30-30. No microgroove to mess with cast boolits.

    My favorite rifle is usually the one in my hand as I am shooting (as long as it and I shoot well).
    However if I had to pick just one, it would probably be my 77 Rug. in 7x57. A close second would be my M95 Swede in 6.5x55. Have a great fondness for old classic ctgs. Does not exclude my 06's however, and my #1 Rug in K-Hor is well up there. Ah----so many guns, so little time.
