First deer rifle.

Next deer/elk rifle

Current elk rifles (I carry 2 alone, or if my dad and I have the same tag, 3 between us, not my pictures)

(yes, that is a 50 caliber Remington 700)

And the third (and fourth) are crappy walmart inlines.

just finished this rifle and will be my new hunting rifle:

late 40's Winchester Model 70 Super Grade in .270 WCF

came with a crappy ugly stock that I sanded down to this version of it.

I used to hunt with a late 80's Remington M700 30-06 that has never fired without me pulling the trigger. This one is way more stylish!

Definitely.

I'd be too concerned about scraping that beauty against a rock or something in the field. Maybe that's why I like the synthetic stocks.

Browning A-Bolt Stainless Stalker, .338RUM. Zeiss Conquest 3x9. First shot in the field with the gun. 120yd, little hole in neck. Exit was about the size of a silver dollar, after shattering the vertebrae. Shooting reloads with 225gr Hornady SST. The lower part of the neck was not me cutting the throat, he was fresh off a sparring match and had several bleeding cuts on the neck skin. He also had a couple of tines broken off. Would really love to see the deer he was tangling with.

My Remington 700 BDL in SS .300RUM. Leupold 3.5x10 VXIII. Also shooting Hornady 180gr SST reloads. Killed the deer its sitting on.

I also have a 700 BDL in 7mm Rem Mag, a couple of Model 7s in .308, and a pre-Garcia Sako, in 243.
This year, I am going to kill a deer with my AR-10. I would use my AR-15, but not legal here in VA for deer.

Here is mine (and some of its results)

It is a Tikka T3 300 WSM. I can not recomment these rifles enough. They are the best deal for the money there is.

Same rifle, same canyon, different results

Here is what the rifle typically does, two shots through roughly the same hole, then strings a high shot. Not high enough to worry though

Out here about the biggest thing we shoot with a shotgun is a turkey.

I had that exact set-up 10 15 years ago only my Lo-pro was silver matte, swiched it out for a Var-x III. My gun loved Nosler 165 gr. Partitions and it put their DITD.

That's impressive. What kind of groups can you get at 200?

Bought this Marlin gold trigger 30-30 used when I was 13 years old. It still has the same cheap scope on it that it had when I bought it. I pulled it out of the safe last year after not shooting it for 15+ years and it was still holding perfect zero.

Where I get a permit determines what I will use.
All these guns have taken at least one deer.

Here's my 700 ADL in .30/06 my dad got for me probably 10 years ago now. Scope is a 3-9X Leupold. I painted it last year with a combination of the krylon camo paints using some oak leaves, fern-like stuff, and other natural cover around here. Since the woods are mostly shades of gray during deer season, that was the goal of the color scheme. I know I wouldn't want to lean it up against a tree around here and then walk off from it.

I topped off the krylon camo job with a couple coats of duracoat clear in flat finish and let it cure for a few days before taking it out. So far so good... I've scratched off a few places from it getting banged around in the safe, but I'm happy with it.

I had a lot of fun painting the thing... only problem was the bolt. The tolerances are so tight on the bolt that you can't put any paint on it, so unfortunately there's a 1" tall, 3" long shiny thing on the right side of the rifle.

I was under the impression that there was no mag restrictions for hunting?

Maybe I read my info wrong.

Is .223 Remington (5.56x45mm) legal to use for deer hunting in Texas? Is it legal to use a SBR to hunt deer in Texas?

Also what about Hog hunting. In Florida if hogs are on private property you can hunt them year round with no permit or restriction on the amount, caliber, capacity, etc... Is Texas the same way?

You can hunt deer in Texas with ANY centerfire cartridge. SBR is OK, no restrictions on magazine capacity either,but you can't use a suppressor on deer or any other game animal.

There are no caliber, capacity, or seasonal restrictions on hogs. You can hunt hogs with a suppressed mini gun from a moving vehicle at night with NVG's and IR designators, and leave them where they fall by the thousand. Hogs are like cockroaches here.

The 700 at the top and the 788 at the bottom are both in 243 . The 788 is currently on loan to Dianne's son , the 788 on the top is pretty much my back-up rifle.

The 788 in the middle is my favorite , she's in 308 . I run handloads with 150 grain Accubonds that are dead-on.

both of you know what i mean ..

answer the question I know this is GD but damn

Write "Glock" on it and load it with .40 S&W. Then hook a long string to the trigger and deploy it like a Claymore Mine. It will also clean, butcher, and cook the meat.

My JC Higgins with Mauser action in .270 with a Burris 2-7 on it. I believe it was produced in 1951 for Sears and also in .30-06. They came with chrome-lined barrels. This is an 8 point I got last year with it.
