My go to rifle is a Nosler TGR chambered in .257 Roberts. It has a Swarovski Z6 1.7-10x42 Scope with an illuminated reticle.

The only deer gun is a .270 WIN.... always has been always will be. I simply cannot be convinced otherwise. There's not a more perfect deer hunting round. If you want the best .270 WIN, get a Tikka T3 Lite as mentioned above (matte stainless and synthetic stock). That is absolutely the most perfect deer hunting rifle on the planet. 308 is far superior to the 270. Just FYI 😆

Make fun if you want, but I like it better.

Make fun if you want, but I like it better. I know there’s a lot of hate out there for the 6.5 creedmoor. I don’t care about the distance and accuracy stats, all my huntings done under 200 yds. And I really don’t like the name, wish they had called it the 6.5 Hornady or really anything else. But I shoot it because it feels like shooting a .243 but your sending 140 grains. Also flat enough I never have to change point of aim.

Browning BLR in .243 with a Leupold 3-9x50 shooting Hornady 95 grain SST's. Got it for graduation from AU in 1982.

Rem.700 in .243 with a 1.5-5x Leupold Vari x 3. shooting hot loaded 100 gr. Partitions. Another excellent choice as well. I love me some 243.

I am loving my Fierce Fury 6.5 Creedmoor with a Swarovski Z6i 5-30x50. Talk about a tack driver. Sometimes, if I just point the gun at the deer, they fall over from fright  When paired with the Hornady 143gr ELD-X, that is an extremely lethal combination. I shot a Ruger M77 270 for years and years, then a Thompson Center ICON in .308 and both were great set-ups, but really liking my current set-up.

Tikka T3 Lite 7mm-08 stainless. I got this from Cuz-Pat. Topped it with a Zeiss 4x14. Best fitting gun and scope combo I have ever shouldered. I like it so much I bought another one just like it in 270 a couple of weeks ago off the site here. Tikka makes a heck of a gun.
My go to for over 40 years has been a Browning BAR in 270 cal. No telling how many deer I killed with it. I never kept count.
