If you had to chose one rifle that you would use for varmit hunting and some big hunting as well what would it be? As far as big game I'm talking about deer sized game maybe elk. I'm looking for a gun that would be good for both. I'm thinking a 308 caliber which would be a bit big for gophers and such but would be acceptable for larger game. I already have a 223 varmit style rifle so I don't want another one in that caliber. This question may be somewhat strange but what I'm looking for is a rifle that serves more than one purpose. I like the Savage bull barreled rifles but thet're a bit heavy for a walking rifle, especially if I do use it as a large animal hunting rifle. I have looked at the Remingtons and the only one so far that meets my criteria is the new VTR, but still waiting to hear more reviews about it. It is nice and lite though so it intrigues me. So ok let me have it and thanks for all the input.
