TOP 3 rifles

Cant separate with / pull out to show off:
1. Great Grandpa / Dad's 30-06 Winchest M70 Featherweight
2. Grandfather's Remington Model 721 270
3. My Marlin 1895SDT Trapper (#483 of 501)

Pull out to shoot:
1. Sig Cross 308
2. Best of the West 7PRC in MDT HNT26
3. 10-22 shorty suppressed in SB Tactical SB22 Chassis with folding brace
 
1. Blaser R8 .308/30-06
2. McWhorter 7SPRC
3. Tikka 300 Win

I have a Gunwerks that I need to shoot more. I had such a bad experience with Hornady 7PRC factory 180 ELDMs that I’ve been kind of turned off to the rifle. Maybe the Gunwerks will make it to the top 3 if I shoot Gunwerks ammo or a good handload.

I had a previous experience like this with my 7prc - if your going factory try the federal eld-x or any of the federal offers- all shot incredibly well out of my browning…not so with the Hornady
 
My top 3:

1. Tikka 30-06 chopped at 20” and threaded.

2. Bergara Ridge 18” in 6.5 Creedmoor, recently put is a Stocky’s VG Hunter with m5 bottom metal.

3. 6.5 Grendel 18” AR-15

If it was really a “can only hang on to 3 rifles” situation, I’d probably swap in a regular 5.56 AR instead of my Grendel. But currently, the Grendel goes to the range and the 5.56 stays home.
 
That I can't separate with? I don't have any heirloom, passed down, rifles that I couldn't part with at all.

Rifles I really like, my 10/22, old Springfield bolt action .22 and a Steyr 96 300 win. mag. Those would be the closest rifles.
 
Rem 700 6.5 CM that I put in an HS precision stock and swapped in a timney trigger

Browning a-bolt medallion in 300 win mag. Beautiful gun, but heavy. Finally got my first bull elk with it this year so I plan on retiring it and replacing with a Tikka or Bergara in 300 win mag.

Savage MkII 22lr - for the squirrels
 
Seekins element 300 prc
Kimber Adirondack 308
DD mk18 556

Ruger american rimfire target 22 does get put through quite a few rounds every year on woodchucks though so that’s a tough one.
 
Top three I always seem to grab

1. Tikka t3 SS 270win
2. Tikka t3x 6.5 prc custom, proof 22”, Peak blacktooth stock
3. Legendary Arms Works 300win mag rebarreled by Fritz over at Black Canyon Customs
