Your first centerfire rifle

[NDHUNTER24]

I saved up my money from Christmas and my birthday growing up and put that money to a Remington 700 sps stainless in a 270. Its the same gun, just looks different now and shoots extremely well.

When I was thirteen, my dad gave me a pre 64 model 70 feather weight in 308 win. Loved the rifle, shot lots of deer and elk with it. Several family members were using 300 Weatherby's. Needless to say I got caught up in the fanfare and traded the Winchester for a 300 Weatherby after 5 or 6 years. I wish that I would have never done that. That 300wby hit hard at both ends, ended up selling the Weatherby. I still have four Weatherby's, no 300s.

Ruger M77 7mm Remington Mag.

I paid $325 cash for it at a gun show that was in the high school gym in the next county south of where I live now. I was 14.
Lotta hay bales went into that rifle.

I don’t miss that gun but I miss those times.

Remington Model 700 in .243. Started open sighted and later put on a cheap nikon scope. Killed many deer and antelope with it and probably could've killed my elk with it had I not switched to a 30-06

Mine was a Savage Axis II stainless in 243. It was super accurate but that bolt was such a pos. I really hand to rip on it after firing. I despised that rifle lol.
