brand new rem 788 in 308win for me.(for deer). it was bought in november of 77' and never used.. got it for 300$ with a S&W eastfield 20 and a cooey 600 that was bought the same day and never used either...
 
This season

I'm going to use a new (for me) "old" Remington 740 Woodsmaster in 30-06 iron sights. Last year all the deer I saw were on the run. So this year I decided I needed some lead slinging capability. Bought it from Tec-Trade in Montreal. Took it out to the range today and at 50 yards out of 15 shots 5 were in the bullseye. Good enough for the tight bush. May also take my Cooey model 710 bolt action carbine in .270. Hadn't fired it in over 30 years and man did it shoot dead on...at least at 50 yds. I may also take my model 94 in 30-30. Took off the scope and it shoots high. Still haven't decided on that one.
 
Lets see: Elk will be 338 Federal or 358 Win, Moose will be 338 Win Mag or 325 WSM, Mule Deer could be 300 H&H or 270 Win, Whitetails = 270 Win or 30-06. No pronghorn this year so the 25-06 will just get some range duty.
