Ya no doubt! SuperFudd probably had to change his diaper when he saw that

 

[small gamer]

For wandering...20 gauge semi-auto with bird shot and slugs.

 

[traderal]

A sxs coach gun or thutty-thutty.

I pack this everyone that I have encountered like it never a negative and everyone wanted to shoot it...

 

[redcourage]

Depends on what I'm feeling like at the time - ruger .22, enfield .303, mossberg 500 or my S+W 30-06.

And I say, why not! If you like it who cares what anyone else thinks

For me it'd be my new to me 1894 in .44 mag.

 

[John Y Cannuck]

My 1892 in 44-40, or my 1894 Winchester, in 30-30.

I like my Kral O/U in the fall now that I have it. It's a blast. Don't care if it rains, snows, or if I drop it off a cliff. Just keep my Jeep locked so I don't find another one there when I return from loafing around.

 

[kamlooky]

Changed memind.......
With all this yack on the lever thread and my forgotten 25-35, this old 1894 will be
my new loafer.
Just need to sell my 250-3000 99 now.........

If I'm just going out for a strole I automatically reach for my Savage Model 24 22lr/410 over under. Can't beat a walk through the bush with my kid with that gun on my arm on a beautiful fall day.

Good one. I similarly like by Brno 12 ga over 30-06 for strolls in the bush... mind you, its a bit more "loud". I tend to fire the light stuff from the 12 ga barrel, saving my 30-06 for those "chance encounters".

 

[Sluice]

This was an interesting question with some good posts

If I am just wandering around I carry my Savage model 23 in .32-20 with a
2 1/2X Busnell scope.
If I think that I might really run into a deer I carry my M96 6.5x55 cut down to 22" with a Williams receiver sight.

I have a 45 cal. CVA Kentucky percussion rifle. It's light (but definitely not short), well balanced, accurate as heck, and just "feels" right.
