    Currently, Tikka.
    Greatest number in circulation, Remington
    Highest number getting ignored and dusty, LE

    I second that. Mossberg, Marlin, Henry, Colt, and Bergara too.

    Hmm, how the heck do I find the option for letting people add an option to the poll?

    Do we tick what we have or what we think is most common?

    I have a few Savages and a Ruger.

    A good start would be tick what you have and comment any other. It's not a very scientific poll

    Maybe the poll should be split into 3 sections: centrefire/rimfire/shotgun?

    Did you mean "Most common off-the-shelf rifles"

    I have 2 off the shelf and 3 assembled from components.
    Only one of which is among the options.
