What is the best brush gun you've ever used?

[todbartell]

let's say deer and moose hunting at ranges from 20-60 yards?

best brush gun

marlin 336 in 35 rem, 200 grain core loks
Rifle is nice and compact, quick to shoulder and have many many bang flops with it.

 

[Campbery]

go big or go home, Sako 75 in .375 H&H with 300gr. Hornady Heavy Mag ammo

 

[fozzy]

I have hunted lots with a Remington 660 in 308. Plenty of rifle and a dream to pack around in the thick timber.Nice and short compact and very accurate.

Marlin 336 in 30-30. 20-60 yards? Can I bring my .22?

I have never taken game with any bush rifle that I have owned, but I always liked my Ruger Semi auto carbine in 44 mag. I'll have to buy another when I see the right deal.

by bush rifle i assume you mean light and quick to mount. win.mod.94, marlin 336, ruger .44 mag. are all good rifles to carry. anywhere from .30-30. .35 rem. to .44 mag.as far as a brush cutting bullet, there all about the same regardless of caliber, meaning they'll only go so far through brush and i've never found one to be any better than the other.

I have two that qualify, Marlin 336XLR in 30-30 and Marlin .444. I haven't taken a deer or moose with either, but I'm working on it.

Ruger M96/44 Mag

 

[Chilly Willy]

Rem 11-87 12g fully rifled 21" barrel with Rem core lokt ultra slugs @ 1900 fps.

 

[Kilo Charlie]

Nostalgia tells me to say the Winchester 07 in .351 SL. But really, the Model 94 carbine I had in .30-30 was much quicker to point. It's a hard one to top.

My fav has always been my Savage 99 in 308 with either the open sights or now I have a 2.5 power scope on it.
Its light and easly to handle in the heavy bush, more than adequate caliber, and I love hunting with the lever action

 

[Calum]

SKS, followed by the 94 30/30.

 

[huntinstuff]

My 444 Marlin

Browning BLR .308 Win with a Leupold M8 4x scope. Wish I'd kept her.

Currently have a 1959 vintage Savage 99F in .308 Win with a Leupold VXII 2-7x33mm for the same duty.
