    Common rifles take 2

    Right you lot. Try this one.
    Whats your go-to hunting centrefire rifle. The one(s) that get taken out and used for hunting.

    Hopefully this will dry some eyes as there are more options now.

    Looking at the results after only 28 votes at this time, and its actually really interesting. A pattern is beginning to show already. I watch this with interest. Well done Joe.

    Haha the colours on the graph choose themselves.

    Yes, there are some rifle makes not listed above. Mostly because after 26 different makers I'd had enough of copy paste.

    I am watching the Other category with interest to see what weird and wonderful rifles folks are using. Like @nor-west omphenlaffen mouser.

    Well my others include, a Fair double rifle, a few coopers, a 6.4x54 Mannlicher, Chipper 45 colt, and a husky M98 in 9.3, I carry the Mannlicher, Fair double or 45 colt, most everywhere, when in the bush in Canada, one of them is never very far, due to a few past bear problems, But I don't take any of these 3 if hunting.
