Most likely:

Remington 700 SPS in .30-06 with a Nikon 4.5-14x40mm BDC scope.

It's kind of overkill, though. I bought it and set it up for high desert hunting, but this year I'll be hunting in western Oregon, which is heavily wooded. OTOH, it's sighted in and I'm accurate with it.

Or maybe this:

581 series Mini-14.

I need to sight it in with the ammo I'd be using, though. I've got it set for 55gr., but I'd probably be using 64gr. or heavier soft points.
