My 336 in 30-30 has been my go to , while checking springs walking fence line … in a mountainous wooded area …. for decades
I once had a custom 6.5x55 Mauser with a 18.5 inch barrel that was my go to about 25-30 yrs ago
and Im thinking about another boltgun
Im learning toward a 16 to 20 inch barrel
1.5 to 2x fixed powered scope …
But trying to decide caliber … 308 ,6.5 CM , 243
7.62x39 ,350 L ,400L , 6.5 Grendel are mostly the calibers Im looking at
Deer , occasional Black bear , coyote ,, feral dog
are what I see .occasionally when Im out
( yep .. deer season and bear season ) I do have my license…
Only hunting rifles I own are 3 Marlin 336 in 30-30
I own no Bolt action hunting rifle
Just wanted to bounce it off u guys and see what might be your choice.. also I will enjoy the conversation
