I’d like to hear what everybody is shooting this year for hunting season. Rifle (handgun), bullet, powder, velocities, and any other tidbits you would like to throw in. I’m always curious what everyone else is using.

Ive got more rifles ready and sighted than I’ll be able to use this season, but what the hell.
1) Marlin guide gun 45/70, it’s got a pistol scope mounted in the scout position, which is very new to me. I’m shooting the Speer 400gr FN over IMR3031 out of it.
2) Savage 99 284 Winchester. 139gr interlock with AA4350
3) Ruger No1 9.3x74R. 285gr PRVI SP with H4350
4) Turkish 98 Mauser 8x57. 150gr interlock over IMR4064. 2725fps.
5) Ruger American in 6.5 Creedmoor. 140gr SST with W760.
6) Swiss K31 7.5x55. 178gr ELD-X over AA4350. 2450fps
