What's your feel good rifle

[Duramaximos]

It's Devastating! It turns moose into coyotes and vaporizes snow for a 1 mile radius!

[jungleboy]

must be a heck of a recoil lol

[Stuckatwork]

.300 best all around....

[Hun-Ter]

Sako Gray Wolf in 300 wsm with a Zeiss 5-25x50 Z800. Very accurate, puts 3 hand loaded bullets into 1 hole at 100 yards.

[boonedocks]

Winchester model 70 Supergrade chambered in 7mm Rem mag pushing 140 grain failsafes out from under a Leupold VXIIIL, 4.5x14x50! It's no fun to carry around but shoots like a dream!

[Altaboy]

T3 Super Lite in 7 mag. Feels great until I pull the trigger

[JCart]

1) 80's M70 XTR .270 first rifle (I bought) and it's a shooter, taken lots of game.
2) 50 cal Lyman Great Plains BP Muzzle Loading capper very accurate.
3) 1977 Browning B78 in .243 just new to me, my Son bought for me it's a keeper.

Mine is a 1959 model 70 featherweight 30-06 I bought a 1994 from the old Hungry Hounds shop in Lethbridge, where every used rifle had been previously owned by European royalty.

I killed a lot of game with it over the years including bears, moose, elk, bison, goat, both deer, etc. From 5 yards to 500 it didn't matter. The standard load finally settled on the 150 TTSX just reaching 3000 fps over 59/H4350.

About 2009 I had Bill Leeper give the metal a facelift and bed the old girl into a McMillan compact edge stock. With a 6 x 36LR in low Conetrols it weighs exactly 7 pounds, and is perfect.

Don't ask me why I have spent so much money chasing far too many custom rifles over the years I have owned it.

These days it is supposedly my spare rifle and semi-retired as I have a beautiful custom 280 built by Leeper on a transition action, but it seems very hard to leave this one at home.

Mine is my 7mm rem mag xbolt...but alot has to do with being very connected tonit as it is my very first rifle....also have taken most of my game with it....but lately i got this kimber 8400 in 300 wsm i csnt wait to take it out

That must be the newer version of the 1895!

[The Cook]

Filled the freezer for many years with my Remington Gamemaster pump 30:06. Nothing fancy but it gets the job done.

I really like my Ruger M77 in .300 win mag. Whitetails,my first elk. a bull moose all taken with it in the past few years. And two days ago I made a 260 yard shot on a Mulie buck with it.

[bubba300]

I have my Dads Rem 700, 7mmRM that he bought in 1963(year I was born)it still shoots excellent and has a old 3X9 wideangle weaver on it.I sighted it in the other day and still dead on at 200 yards so I better take it out and see if I can't get my mulely with it.

[300backfire]

my favorite best feel gun is push feed Winchester m70 with 22" barrel. my second is aa 1963 rem 700 in 264wm

[David Henry]

Browning Model 92 in 44 Rem Mag bought new in about 1980 and a Ruger Mod 77 Ultralight in 250 Savage bought new in 1984 ish. David.

[Scottmisfits]

I have two, kinda. The one I would never sell is my grandfathers Eddystone built M17 that he got in the Homeland Militia during WW2. I don't take it out because I really don't like the trigger on it but it's still a shooter either way.
Next is my fairly new Remington 700 AAC in 308. I bought it this year, did the load for it this year, got my first animal with it this year. It will hold a place for me for some time to come.

[BigRedJeep]

My happy gun is my recently acquired cz 455 super match. I just love plinking with it. I have one gopher and a magpie with it so far. This one will remain open sights and in my cold dead hands

That's what you call major ground shrinkage.

Theses two ,sako 270 ,ruger 30-06

[amosfella]

I use a Browning B92 that's probably killed more large animals that the guns of 98% of the good folk on this forum. I've even killed buffalo with it. For gophers, it's either my 17 hornet if I want long range practice or yotes, or if I want iron sight practice, it's a CZ 453 lux.

I did replace the rear sight on the B92... Something about it since I did that... It just doesn't seem to 'come up' into sight line as naturally as it did before.

[^v^Tinda wolf^v^]

I just picked up a marlin 1895 cowboy with the 26" octagon barrel and it's quickly becoming a favourite, she's a looker I would like to add a couple features in time such as a large loop leaver, ghost ring sights, bear proof ejector and improved spring kit.

[Unclebud]

My favourites.....Winchester. Model 70 in 7mm
Remington 300 XCR
Sako Barvarian 375 H&H. ( my no-run gun!! )

Another 88 fan here!
I have other big game guns but this is the one I reach for.
My Dad bought it in the late 60's at the Canex in Cold Lake, passed it down to my brother and he passed it on to me.
She really loves the cast 200gr Lee boolit. Took 2x whitetail this year and a cow moose two yrs ago. Topped off with a simple gloss Leupold VXI 3-9x40, 200 yards with 200gr cast is no problem if needed.
