Your first deer rifle?

[whitetails_wi]

Marlin lever action 30-30. Shot my first and still my largest whitetail with that gun.

For short range whitetail the 7.62x39 is my favorite. Mine is in a Ruger American Ranch. Hopefully for should be an able to track down a new stock for you CZ.

You would think! There are literally no options. CZ doesn’t have them in stock anymore and none of the aftermarket’s are specific to the 527M Carbine model. Apparently you can modify the 527 American stocks, but I haven’t pulled the trigger on one yet.

I shot my first deer when I was in college on a hunt with one of my roommates. The only rifle that I owned at that time was a single shot Remington bolt action .22 LR, so I borrowed a Win 94 in .32 Win Spl from my roommate and shot a spike mulie buck.

I didn't shoot my first whitetail until 10 years later when I moved to Montana and shot a little 3x3 or 4x4 buck with my .30-06.

I shot my first whitetail in the mid 90's with my dad's Ruger m77 tang safety 243. While I was in college I bought a Ruger m77 tang safety 30-06 and used that for years.

My boys shot their first whitetails with a Marlin 1895 in 357. That gun has very little recoil and does a nice job on deer inside 150 yrds.

Had to dig deep to snag a pic of these. My first two.

Ruger MKII SS/boat paddle in 30-06. Vari X II 3-9. Quite a rig in it's day.

 

[2muchhp]

Marlin lever in 44mag, traded that for a 444 and still have and shoot that gun.
Wish I would have kept the 44 and just bought a tripple4...

 

[Lucks]

Winchester Model 88 in .243

 

[bgold]

First I ever hunted with was a Remington 742 in 30-06. It had the mandatory 3x9 in see through rings.

First I ever bought was a Ruger in 270. It ended up in a B&C stock and with a Timney before it shot well enough for me to be satisfied.

 

[Davyalabama]

Daisy BB gun, still have it.
First big kid rifle, I owned, 742 in 30-06, sold it to purchase a Weatherby mark 5 in 300 whby magnum.

My first gun was a Remington 710 chambered in .270. It was an awful gun that felt like the bolt was made for a different gun and shoved into this one.

 

[casey36]

My first was a Winchester M94 bought with S&H green stamps. The first i got with my own money was a Ruger 77r, tang safety 7mm mag. I was 17 at the time. Loved that rifle, should have never traded it! It did get traded for a beautiful Ruger No.1 in 6mm. Should have kept that one also. I don't trade any now, just buy more!

 

[6mm Remington]

Remington Model 600 Centennial chambered in 6mm Remington and made in 1964. 75th anniversary of Statehood and 100th or the Montana Territorial Centennial. I believe 1030 were made. Got it when I turned 12 in 1972. It killed a lot of deer and antelope over the years and my son took his first antelope with it also. Still wears the K4 Weaver scope we put on it day 1. My dad purchased it for $99.00 (new) in a small store in Nye Montana about 1968.
Here is me on the left with the rifle with an antelope buck I shot. No hat one. You can see the medallion in the stock.

Here's my son with his first and second antelope.

A 99$ cva muzzleloader, worked great unless you needed it

My grandpa had a rem 700 in 6mm Remington. My cousin now has it. I got all grandpas reloading stuff and I found out he really liked the spicy loads. The rifle has quite a bit of bark.

 

[TreyPwestOk]

Bolt action 16 gauge slug, you would have to set your shoulder back in place after every shot. Haha!
