Would also need to keep a .223 Mini-14 w/hi-cap clip handy. And a Winchester Model 94, in 30-30.

Since that isn't likely, I would pick a custom built 6mm with a top line scope.Don't hunt anything but coyotes, foxes, or bobcats so don't need any more rifles. -------------------- Al Prather Foxpro Field Staff Posts: 781 | From: Nicholasville, Ky. | Registered: Mar 2006  |  IP: Logged Locohead World Famous Smoke Dancer Member # 15 posted February 19, 2010 09:07 PM                    I'm gonna butcher the rules 3 different ways: .243 Rem .22 pistol 12-gauge That eliminates a lot of my guns but I think I'd survive okay with those - bare minimum mind you.

That would have to mean that somehow SHTF. The first thing I'd do is ignore the rules. 1.) Ruger 77 in .270. Meat gun. 2.) Remington 870 12ga. Would like to say my Beretta Urika but over the long haul the 870 would probably be a more reliable choice. 3.) Browning 22 LR A Bolt. Assuming things were really bad I could grab this rifle in one hand and a lifetime supply of ammo in the other and head for the hills. And still have the means for a meal and be a force to be reconned with.

Got to have that stern mean look too. 1. I guess some kind of Mauser 98 clone in 30-06. Maybe a CZ or a Dakota or something like that. 2. Same thing in a 22-250 3. A nice 22lr rimfire. Another CZ I guess. 4. My shotgun and an AR in 223 OK that makes three.

Member # 642 posted February 21, 2010 12:04 PM                   I broke the rule yesterday. Went to a little gun show and came home with an older Winchester model 94 in 30-30. I had one when I was a kid and loved it. My youngest son has outgrown his youth 243 and I told him I would get him a new deer rifle. I was going to buy him a CZ 550 American in 6.5x55 Swede, like I got his brother at this age. Best gun in the safe, IMO, for deer. But he has always had a thing for cowboy guns and begged for it. I may get him something different later on, if the new wears off and he wants a nicer gun. If so, I will be happy to take it and put it in with the others. Pretty kewl old gun. Anybody know any fur freindly loads for it? -------------------- Andy Posts: 2645 | From: Central Missouri | Registered: Apr 2005  |  IP: Logged Kokopelli SENIOR DISCOUNT & Dispenser of Sage Advice Member # 633 posted February 21, 2010 12:21 PM                      Gotta love the 30-30 lever gun. It just seems 'right' when you shoot it. Re; Fur Load. I don't know if they are still availble or not, but at one time there was a 30-30 round with a sabot & a .224 pill. As I recall, it was a screamer but strictly a one in the chamber & no more than one in the tube, deal. If you try any of that 'Lever-loution ammo' please let us know what you think of it. -------------------- And lo, the Light of the Trump shown upon the Darkness and the Darkness could not comprehend it.

A Win Model 70 in 375 H&H for deer and larger game. Lastly, a German Gebrüder Merkel Drilling in 12x12x243 win for coyotes up to deer size game. I hope you don't call the Drilling a cheat. In fact, I would trade my Ar for a Drilling. Think about it!! One gun with two shotgun barrels and one rifle barrel. I think that would be the ultimate calling rifle. -------------------- Never thought the devil would need a teleprompter but I could be wrong.
