Military deer rifles
My local gunsmith has been working on my sporterized 1909 Mauser and 1903 Springfield rifles for nearly two years. Now they are finished. The 1909 is a .280 Remington and the 1903 is a .270 Winchester. Not sure which one I will take out this year, maybe both during the season. All the best...

Gil,
Do those rifles have scopes? At our age, scopes help count points. Adam

My favorite deer rifle is my sporterized '98 Mauser. It probably ended up costing me more than had I just gone to a sporting goods store and bought a new M70 Winchester or M700 Remington. However there is something nice about having a rifle that is somewhat unique and mine is quite accurate to boot.

Mausers
Gill I happen to have a nice Sporter built on the Arg Mauser. It is a 35 Whelen built by Dale Goens. Beautifully built rifle ..and a shooter. Heavy though. Hope ya get a deer with those guns..both of 'em.

It depends
Looks like a 1903A3 Springfield .30-06 in an ugly synthetic stock. This is my rainy day rifle and it will rain. All the best...
