I own an AR-15 and I like it a lot. I also got one of the scopes for it from ATN to upgrade it a little.I believe you`ll find this variant interesting.

You know the answer: 30-06 Springfield my dad built for me in 1962. No backup.Attached Files

Most times I have my Winchester '94 at camp for a back up or, if I get tired of carrying my primary rifle or want a taste of years past, I go with the old 30-30. Generally, I am not carrying a hand gun as a back up but sometimes carry my S&W .44mag as the primary firearm

My main deer and hog gun is a Ruger American 7mm-08 compact with a 7mm-08 Ruger American standard as backup. Also have .270 Winchester 70 and a .243 Ruger American compact. They stay in the safe at the camp during the season.

Always crap happens. 25-06 is my new rifle for deer. 243 probably the back up. But usually carry a 30-30 in the truck during deer season. Heck usually have at least two rifles with me during season just in case.

My utility rifle is a .300win mag it basically goes everywhere with me.
If I'm deer hunting it's probably my .280Rem, my Ruger Ranch 6.8 is typically back at camp as a backup, or if I decide to push deer.

I don't travel far for the most part, but when I rifle hunt I'm generally on the far side of the state. An old Montgomery Ward .30-30 is generally on board as a back-up.
