I'm not hunting any wide open spaces anymore so for my few longer shots I'm running a 30-30 Marlin 336 microgroove with a Nikon Monarch. In the woods I use a Ruger revolver in 45 long Colt with a 4x Nikon LER. The revolver has downed 2 does so far this year with the 185 grain Hornady Critical Defense ammo.

All I have to hunt are woods so the Marlin .35 rem goes with me 90% of the time.

Field/power line rifle:

Savage 111 7MM REM MAG w/ 8-32x40 Bushnell Elite

Woods gun:

Savage Stevens 200 .270 w/ 6-18x50 Bushnell Banner

I've all but retired the .270. Just love the 7MM and being able to see each individual hair at 200 yards with that Elite scope.

That's a nice one. I might buy a 308 and try a Kahles 3-10X50 on it. Normally I don't like big scopes on light rifles but the Kahles only weighs 15 oz. Do you like the way that gun handles with the larger scope?

5lbs2oz gun with 18oz scope still puts gun combo at roughly 6lbs 5oz. Still lighter than most bare guns. I love the way it handles. Sure it probably doesn't handle as well as a 40mm scope. But, love the light gathering and I like the compact size of gun. I just personally like easy caring compact rifles. Model 7,abolt micro, etc.

Not yet brother, but it's only 3.5 OZ heavier than my 2-7X36 Kahles and it is a good bit brighter in low light. I'm just interested in giving it a try.

Went with the Kimber 300 WSM with 3-9x50 Leupold 3 years ago. Absolutely love it. Sighted in at 1" high at 100 yds. Tack driver if I've ever seen one. I hunt a lot of young cutover and have really been pleased. Last 2 times I've pulled the trigger has been 225 and 260 yards. Both bucks dropped in their tracks.

Weatherby Weathermark in 7mm Rem Mag topped with Nikon glass. I've harvested truckloads of deer with this rifle and have never had to track one.

1984 Model 700 .270 most of the time. Had the trigger done years ago, composite stock along the way. Shoots way better than I can.
