Dang. Hard question. I really like my new Tikka T3x in .308, then there is my new Christianson Arms 6.5 PRC, still love my Marlin 1895 in .450 Marlin and my .338 federal.

Custom 6.5-.284 shoots good but too heavy and cumbersome.

Nice looking rifle Lonster and quite the shooter I see. I’ve got a pre-‘64 M70 Featherweight custom chambered in 6.5x284. She’s not a 1 hole shooter like that rig of yours but she is sub-MOA w/ 120gr NBT’s and a pure pleasure to shoot.

Remington 700 BDL DM (detachable magazine) in .280 Remington. I bought it in 1991. I had it on layaway for almost a year and scoped it with a Simmons .44 mag scope. I didn't have much money then and this was a huge investment for me. I have killed over 120 whitetails with this rifle. The Simmons scope was a good scope for almost 30 years but finally got foggy. It now has a Leoupold VX3 on it and still continues to kill deer. I have more expensive rifles now but when I want to get the job done, it's my go to.

[Linked Image] Browning Abolt stainless .308 topped with a Burris Euro Diamond 3x12x56 #4 reticle illuminated dot. Started hunting with it in 2016 and have put 10 bucks on the wall with it since. It’s not my lightest or smallest rifle but it is just an accurate sweet shooting deer killing machine with 150gr blue box federals.

Nice strong showing from Team Browning in this thread. Those EuroDiamonds are top notch glass, fantastic bang for the buck and way more optic than anything remotely near their price range. I would love for Burris to bring that line back.

It's a long list in reality but if I had to pick one it would be my first.

My .308 Sako Mannlicher. Looks like this but scoped:

Or a pump remi 30-06 if an opportunity to stretch out the distance exists.

My favorite changes by the day, hour, or minute… but right now I’m really digging the Cooper Custom chambered in 280Rem with Swaro 4-12x50. She really likes 140gr Berger VLD’s over 53.5gr of H4350.
