Well, I must have misunderstood, as I thought this thread was about MULIES and not just any deer speices.
Now for mule deer, I favor the 7mm mag with a 150 grain handload for the high country out west.
My venturing to harvest the whitetail bucks, turned my head towards the Marlin 444 for use in the hardwoods. This was after using a Ruger semi-auto version of the 44magnum for a half dozen years in the woods.
However, the last decade or so has had me rely more upon a rifle scope instead of just the iron sights on my Marlins & Winchester lever guns. So I guess I would have to put the model 70 Winchester in the 1/4 Bore (25-06) down as my favorite all time whitetail deer gun.
