Wby 300 um / no mb with a Nikon that probably was broken inside. That Mark V was pretty though...... Worked myself down the power curve very fast. Landed on a 270 for many years once I recovered from that first concussion (kidding).

Remington 7400 30-06 - Tasco World Class 3-9x50 - Could not hit the broad side of a barn.

Savage 219 30-30

7x75 Mauser WW2 vintage. That thing was so heavy. My Dad cut off several inches of the barrel, the end of the barrel looked as thick as a nickel is wide. (thick to take the heat of constant firing in war) I think I was 10 years old. When I was 12 or 13 I got a new Interarms Mark X Mauser in 30.06. I still have both.

My first deer rifle was a Rem 700 BDL 30-06 my dad gave me for my birthday when I was 12 or 13. I killed a lot of deer with and still have it although at that age i preferred to use his Marlin 336 30-30 that I started out on. I mostly use a .223 or .243 these days for deer.

Remington 6mm pump action. Took down a lot of deer with that one. Started when I was 14.
