I run a bunch of different guns depending on the situation. My favorite tree stand guns are a contender in 7-08 and a remy model seven in 7-08. If I'm not toting one of them it could be an AR in 5.56 or .300 BO. Close shots in pines I'll carry a 30-30. One of my leases got clear cut during the first part of the season so if I go there it could be 30.06, 308, 25.06 or 300WM.

7mm08 most of the time. it will do everything i need to do. But to switch things up i will tote a 35 remington or 20 ga with slugs.

My current go to is a 308, but have 30:06 and a Savage 300 that I occasionally pull out of the safe and go with.

The rifle I reach for the most this year is my new 338-06 Improved. It was built by John Gallagher in Jasper. I also like to use cartridges that are outside the norm. The list of rifles I've used is:
257 Roberts 7X57 7mm Rem Mag 308 Winchester 30-06 300 H & H Magnum 300 Winchester Magnum 300 Weatherby Magnum 338 Winchester Magnum 35 Whelen Improved 375 H & H Magnum
Bought a 264 Winchester Magnum this year but haven't used it yet.
