I killed my first deer with a Savage 110 in .30-06, which is my dad's gun. Then, I bought a Ruger 77MKII in .300 Win Mag. and that has been my primary deer gun. I also have a Rem. 700 in .270 Win that I have taken out twice, but I never had the opprtunity to shoot at a deer with it.
Over the winter, I am hoping to get a Ruger 77MKIIVT in .25-06 and plan on using it for deer as much as possible.
However, the majority of my deer have been taken with my slug gun. Initially, it was a Browning BPS with a Hastings rifled barrel, but now it is a Benelli SBE with an ER Shaw rifled barrel on it and two recoil reducers.
