My R-93 combo is a Prestidge stocked model with a .270 and 9.3x62 barrels.

I also have a matched pair of Browning Safaris in .243 and .308, built on small ring FN actions. I have killed dozens of deer with a .243 (100 Noslers) but usually select the .308 between the pair.

I have used the .338-06 on a good many deer. Talk about slam dunk!

The little .218 Bee is fine for head shots on meat deer. And lastly, the .30-30 is a perfect example of a cartridge that is perfectly balanced, constructed, or whatever for both man and beast in the 100 to 300 pound range. I have witnessed what it does to both man and deer.

Life is too short to be limited to one rifle, although Dad did rather well with only one center fire, a Marlin .30-30.

Best wishes,

Jack
