In your opinion what 3-5 rifle cartridges are best for Mule Deer?

[cobrad]

I’m pretty fond of the old 270 for deer or elk. For deer I have 6 creedmore, 6.5 PRC or a couple different 300’s but this year I’m hunting deer with my old Knight 50 cal muzzle loader

308 win
7mm rm
300 wm
No I don't shoot suppressed I'm as accurate as anybody and as unpopular as my picks might be their mine and my own opinion and experience. After 35 years of experience I can say almost any centerfire will knock a mule deer dead. Shoot what you like or what you have there is literally no wrong answer.
