With a few custom rifles of my own and my personal favorite a ruger 300 wm . The first gun I shot my first big game animal with . I'd have to say a gun I haven't shot 1 time yet . My grandfather's 1907 eddystone 30-06. My dad says it was sporterized by a cousin way back in the day . Grandpa never did shoot shoot anything but paper with it . Grandma didn't like hunting.
 
This would be it, suppressed 14 with Navy SSR mount, 2.5-10 NXS, Surefire FA762SS, Obermeyer barrel I chambered and contoured from a blank, properly bedded and NM accurized. Stock is a sitiffened GI fiberglass.

With 10 mags already loaded plus 4 cans of surplus M118 LRs with 175 SMKs would be plenty to last me a long time. I've shot it to 1K on paper, and every range in between. I got good dope for it.

Edit: I have metal parts to rebuild it 3X.
Edit2: One can of the LRs have nose rings cut on them for hunting game.
