I own the following rifles and am wondering if it makes sense to upgrade them:
Remington Scoremaster Model 511 Bolt Action .22 LR - Purchased used years ago. It shoots well but often jams when feeding in rounds (it has clips). Was thinking of selling it and buying a Ruger 10/22.
Marlin Model 30AS Lever Action 30-30 - Bought used and it shoots well. However, I am not a big fan of the recoil (I know I've developed a flinch when shooting). Main use is as a backup for deer hunting in northern Wisconsin.
Ruger Model M77 Bolt Action 30-06 (laminate stock) - Shoots well but I have had some issues with accuracy after trying to free-float the barrel (I currently have a business card slid between the forearm and barrel which seems to help). Recoil is an issue with this rifle too. This is my primary rifle for deer hunting in northern Wisconsin.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
