TOP 3 rifles

I’m a tikka lover and have a pile of them but don’t have any sentimental attachment to any of them other than 1

1: Browning abolt medallion (got it for Christmas in 99 when I was in the 4th grade)

2: Bergara actioned 6mm creed with a brux barrel. It is so boringly accurate and consistent

3: Tikka 223 that my lil girl got her first deer with this year. Man I was proud and will keep that thing forever

For me personally, if I had to walk out the door tomorrow with minimal preparation:
1- Remington 700 7mm08 in B&C Medalist stock
2- Remington 700 7mm RM in HS Precision sporter stock
3- Tikka T3x CTR 6.5CM
 
Ruger #1b - .300 Wby
Custom build - .220 Ackley Improved Swift
Custom build - .30-06 03 Springfield

The 2 custom builds, I did the stockwork myself.

For almost 7 decades, I've owned and hunted with far too many rifles / cartridges from 22 rimfire to 458 Win Mag and darn near everything in between. Not a single bad memory either. Over the last 2 years have reduced my inventory to 3 with no overlapping.

1. Classic Winchester .22 rimfire
2. Savage 12 Low Profile Varmint - 243 Win - a 1 ragged hole shooter for targets and LR Wiley.
3. Tikka Laminated SS - 30-06 - exceptionally accurate - for Deer / Black Bear / Elk and up.

Very, very happy with my 3 ownerships.

Cheers!!
 
Kleinguenther K15 in 7mm Mag (gift)
POF Rogue AR-10 in 308 (new hog gun)
Noveske AR-15 build in 223 (favorite AR)
Bergara BMR in 22LR (small game)

I can’t got down to 3 because these represent different categories for me.
 
Only have one I'll never sell not due to sentimental reasons.

LH Browning A-Bolt SSA 25 WSSM.

It's extremely accurate, 100% reliable, lively in the hands and settles on target well. The 25 is perfect for most of what I do.
 
No shotguns or handguns?
1) CZ 457 tricked out with Lilja, KRG Bravo, Athlon Helos
2) Baikal 12g over/under Thing was $150 when I bought it 25 years ago and has had countless thousands of rounds, 25's shooting skeet, and dead birds. Still looks new.
3) White Oak Match AR-15
Give me a few months and I'll replace #2 with my new T3x 6.5 CM
