What’s your go to?

I’ve got 3 of them that I love just depends on the type of hunting I’m doing. Living in Oklahoma I do a lot of nighttime and a little daytime coyote hunting so my rifles are setup around that. Each built on Impact actions and XLR chassis with some homemade buttstocks. It’s really cool to shoot a rifle you chambered too.

First one I’d grab would be my day setup18” 6 creed that I chambered myself that runs a 75 gr vmax at 3550.
Second would be my 24” 22 creed night setup that I also chambered that runs a 53 gr vmax at 3900.
Third would be my 24” 7 SAUM elk and long range deer rifle. Shooting a 180 hybrid at 2850.

Either my Fierce Firearms CT Edge 270 WSM, my Tikka T3X 270 Win or my Weatherby Ultralight 270 WBY Mag.

I just love a .277 caliber bullet.
 
I keep coming back to my suppressed Xbolt 308 20”, though I killed a cow elk with a tikka 6.5cm. This will have an XLR element MG chassis on it next year.
 
Tikka 300 wsm,Winchester 9.3x62 and a tc 50 cal. I had used both rifles in Colorado for elk so decided to use for deer in WI. But the muzzleloader was the only one that got action. Next year a howa 6 arc and cva scout pistol 6 arc along with 45/70 Henry will see most of the action.

I use my dad’s Interarms Mark X in .30-06 with 150 gr. Remington Cor-Lokts.. it’s all I need for whitetails in the northeast. Only think I’ve done is put it in a cheap hogue stock (to save the wood stock) and put a timney trigger on it
Agreed....30-06 and Remington cor-lokts!!
 
This year it was a JM stamped Marlin Guide Gun in 45/70 shooting the 325 grain Hornady. I have a lot of options but for whatever reason that is the one I kept grabbing as I headed out. It’s topped with a 2-7 Leupold. Killed 2 bucks this year. Both DRT
 
I have three that I use frequently. I also sometimes take something that I am playing with and want to test a new bullet etc.

For moderate range ( under 200yds or so) stand hunting a custom m77MkII in 250AI, 100BT 3 deer this year
