Top photo is some sort of Accuracy International rifle?

Middle photo, pre 1892 Winchester?

Bottom photo, M1a in one of them Ultramax bullpup stocks?
Nay, nope, and no sir. The first is a Desert Tactical Arms SRS .300WM, the second is a Browning 1885 (you were close...was originally made by Winchester), the final one is a Bushmaster M17S. Don't feel bad...most everyone else wouldn't know most of them either. I am drawn to unique, interesting (to me) rifles that aren't very well known. :)

Asking which is my fav is too much for me too decide. But I do have a couple I'd cherry pick for one reason or another.

One is my Argentine 1909 mauser, the craftmanship is beautiful, and it shoots pretty good also.

I'm really fond of my Springfield 4.2 Garand also. She is a beautiful looking rifle and while I can manage 11/2 groups out of it but on average closer to 3 inch groups at 100yds.

add both of these also. M1A is well, a M1A.:D And when it comes to shear shooting fun the AR-15 is all that.

So how do like the bolt-action bullpup format? The reaching-back-to-the-bolt motion seems like it would be awkward but I've never tried it ... does it work out pretty well? It's certainly a striking look ... which is my "mature" way of saying:
Dayamn that thing looks awesome!!!

(Take a look if you're curious, folks!)

It is much easier than it appears to be, though challenging when fired standing, it is somewhat easier (than a conventional bolt gun) to cycle when prone. I like it a lot. :D
 
An early model 70 SS classic in .375H&H cut to 20" fluted and restocked with a McMillian She shoots under a half inch consistently and I've used on everything from Jack Rabbits to cape buffalo she's never let me down and has felled hundreds of head of game on several continents in all weather form arctic freezes and coastal rain Forrest deluges to the smoldering plains of Africa and the burning deserts of Kalahari to the American South West. I made my longest ever elk kill with this little thumper at lazed 443 yards in NM about 10 years ago. She is one seriously versatile little vixen and is my favorite go to rifle in the world.

There is absolutely no way I could pick a favorite. But here are a couple that I really enjoy shooting. The carbine is my .300 Fireball, and the Rifle is my 6.5 Grendel.

It's a toss up. I really love that M1A, but the AR in 22LR is so much fun. The next thing on the buy list is a cheap little red dot optic for that 22LR AR, then it'll be even more fun to shoot.
