If I had to pick one it would be 7mm rem mag and 38 special.  But I don't carry while I hunt and I don't use 7 mag anymore either.  I hunt deer with 270 win and elk with 325 wsm.

I have to go with the OP on this one - .30-06 and .45. I've got the Springfield and I want a 1911 Kimber or Colt badly.

Bowtech Carbon knight ever since I met Coach :chuckle:

And my .40 is ALWAYS on my hip..
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

It doesn't matter what you think...
