I'm torn between my Remington woodsmaster 742 in .30-06, Savage Axis in .25-06 (New Purchase), Winchester Model 70 in 300 Win Mag(New Purchase) or my Savage 212 with a Nikon Slughunter shooting Remington Premier Expander.  Decisions, decisions, decisions.

There is absolutely NO decisions to make for me.  I will be using the same gun that I have been using since 1985 when I bought it.   A Remington 700 in .270.  I have other guns capable of taking deer, but I am not the type to be switching to something else since this gun has done the trick.  Some guys take gun A on a rainy day or gun B on a sunny day or gun C for brushy areas.  I am certainly NOT one of those people.  The same gun will get the nod no matter what.

I was surprised to see that a lot of hunters are using a 7mm-08. I thought I was a rare exception. My Savage Trophy Hunter in 7mm'-08 has downed several deer. All were 1 shot kills behind the shoulder shots. Recoil is very light and meat damage is minimal with the 7mm-08. It will be with me on opening day and throughout the gun season.        valoroutdoors.com
