I shot this tasty buck on opening day. I am already planning my attack for the late ML season!  ;D

Thompson Center, CVA, all great guns. My best advice would be to go to a shop and see what fits you best and feels the most comfortable. They are all capable of poking out to 150 yards plus depending on how comfortable you are. Also, are you stand hunting or ground hunting? If from a stand you may want to consider a 26" barrel for the extra distance as well as a scope. If you are stalking a 24" may be the better choice to save you on weight and mobility.

I will definitely be stand hunting and still hunting. Good info. Thanks.

Just bought a lhr redemption. Havent been made since TC bought them out n changed the name to TC Strike.  Got one for 300$ n 50$ to ship. Things pretty slick.
Match trigger, green mountain barrel, corrosion coating on both inside and out.  Silent safety.  They prolly have a few more if interested. They went for 600$
