My old school Rem 700 BDL .300 Win Mag is my one and only but seldom gets used anymore. It's all crossbow for me mostly.

CVA Scout (ambidextrous) in a 35 Whelen Heavy Fluted barrel, Leupold 3-9X40MM Freedom CDS Duplex. It's for Iowa. The only necked cartridge they allow. Other than that it's muzzle loader, shotgun slugs, or straight walled ammo. The 35 is way more accurate and has 3 times the range of the next best thing they allow. Unless you want to fork out $5K for a custom long range muzzle loader. Hunted up there for several years with a standard inline muzzle loader until they changed the regs and opened up some centerfire cartridges. The ol' smoke pole is collecting dust now.

Nice rifle! Yeah I have an old inline somewhere back in a dark corner too. Actually like hunting with that thing, need to bust it out for old times sake.

For here at home, I have a Remington model 700 BDL-LH 270 with a single 6X Redfield wide angle (rectangle optical and reticle lens) my wife gave me for Christmas back in 1983. Had to have the crosshairs replaced a couple years ago but it still shoots deadly groups after all these years. For the other Midwest states I hunt I shoot a 338 Lapua Mag.

"Tikka " craze for me . Guaranteed to shoot less than moa . This 270 will shoot anything put in it less than .75 . Of coarse in memory of my dad the old 30-06 sees annual use .
