i use a 30-6, which works great, but i believe a winchester 94 is th best, but there really expensive

If your hunting anywhere were there is heavy cover and the most you will be able to shoot is around seventy-five yards tops, no other gun beats a lever action 30-.30. This is the perfect gun, it's short, light, and can easily take down a deer. I would reccomend getting a raised scope, so you can still use the iron sights for shorter shots

30.06 will bring down any game animal in North America. F & S, posted an article I believe in the Dec issue where one of their writers brought his 30.06 to Africa and did very well there and harvested rather large game. It all depends on the ammo at that point, which with this caliber round there are more available in more places. It also has a longer range and knock down power over a 30.30

It all depends on the terrain but where I hunt is extreme brush. My favorite 30-30 pump. However my friend loves his 7mm for field shooting.

Depends on where u r hunting. anything from 30-30 to a .308 would work good

.270

.243, or 30/06

Nate

depends on where you are hunting and what the target is going to be. i use a .270 and .308 for whitetail hunting in the southeast.

John Browning designed the most popular lever action in history, the Winchester Model 94, but the BLR is a much more recent design effort by the company that bears the Browning name.

The Marlin 336C is unquestionable one of the most popular, reliable, and effective deer rifles of all time. Its 20" barrel and full length magazine allow it to get on target fast and yet swing smoothly. Overall length is a compact 38.5" and it weighs 7 pounds.

This trim and deadly Mannlicher-stocked beauty is one of the finest bolt action woods and mountain rifles ever made in the USA. With its 18" barrel, trim classic style walnut stock, controlled feed, integral scope base and 38.25" overall length (in short action calibers), the M77RSI is one trim, fast handling, hunting rifle. It weighs 7 pounds and comes with adjustable iron sights.

The Remington Model 700 is the best selling bolt action hunting rifle in history, and for decades the definitive Model 700 has been the BDL Deluxe. In recent years it has been joined by the similar but understated CDL version and the lightweight LSS Mountain Rifle.

The Ruger No. 1 is the single shot rifle that put the type back on the map in terms of popular appeal. A compact, graceful falling block action, black walnut stock, a quarter rib to facilitate scope mounting and a 26" barrel to extract the full potential from long range cartridges are among its best features. Even with its long barrel, the overall length of a No. 1B is 42.25", about the length of most bolt action rifles with 22" barrels.

Those who feel the need for a super accurate, stainless/synthetic, long range deer rifle can probably do no better than the Weatherby Vanguard SUB-MOA Stainless. Many shooters and hunters do not realize that the Weatherby Vanguard is built on one of the best push feed actions in the world. Vanguard's incorporate all of the usual Weatherby performance enhancing features. In addition, SUB-MOA's come with a special hand-laminated Monte Carlo composite stock with a molded-in aluminum bedding plate that stiffens the receiver.

270 it dosent kick hard and will put the smackdown on a monster buck

well it all depends on the area but my favorite is a good .270

Another vote for the Marlin lever action, 30-30 most likely.

Man, you know how to start a war! The absolute BEST rifle is the one that fits you best and will humanely take the deer. You have to know what range, what cover, etc. you're shooting through. Are you slugging through timber?, Shooting across open meadows? If a .30/06 doesn't bother you with recoil, it's about the best all around cartridge you can pick. You'll always be able to buy a box of cartridges for it, and a box that fills the bill as far as terrain too. Last I remember, it was accelerators of 55 grains for varmints up to 200 grain round nose for the heavy stuff. It does'nt get more versatile than that.

.270 or .243

Sorry, it's actualy a 336 Marlin, awesome gun

30.30 IS The best!

I guess "buckhuntr" has "30-30 Marlin."

for my open fields of souther NY i use a .243 in the norht thick woods i yeald a 30-30

30-06 hands down

30-06 hands down

Definatly a Remington 700 in 7mm win. Mag.

The one you can hit a deer in the vitals with accurately and consistently and is allowed by game laws.

30-06 and 308 very good guns

Sako or Tikka T3 .308 bolt action.

my grandpa SWEARS that the 7mm is a miracle from god and i dont have enough experience to prove him wrong

I have a generic old .30-06 bolt action.
