I share your dilemma and love it. Every year I must decide which rifle will get the call for the comming season. My current choices:
Weatherby Vanguard 30-06
Remington 7400 30-06
Remington Model 7 308
Ruger No.1 7mm mag
Remington 788 6mm
Marlin 336 30-30
Rossi Mod 92 45 Colt & 357 mag

Last year it was the 7400. Took a nice 8-point @ 180 yds, spot and stalked an old boar hog that was about 300 lbs and a nice yote. Good season.
Haven't made up my mind about this season yet. After all, variety is the spice of life.
