If I somehow had to start over and hunted as I used to I (myself) would either buy or build, possibly just a barrel swap to a 7-08, 6mm/244, 257 Roberts calibers and not ruling out a 7.62x51 on the high end. If I was to go deer hunting tomorrow my carry rifle would be either my 7-08 or 243 Ackley depending on where I went and the terrain. My views on calibers have changed over the years. 50 yrs ago I would taken my pre 64 M70 300 H&H. I put down over 50 with it. The worst damage I ever did to a deer was with my 220 Swift. The 300 just made a hole and they dropped.
