Ruger 77 Ultra-lite in 270 with a Bausch and Lomb 3-9x40 scope in the Ruger rings. I was 19 and I bought it myself. My Dad had stopped hunting by that time so I had never even fired a center fire rifle or used a scope until I bought that gun. Just shotguns and iron sight .22's. Took it to a friends house, sighted it in with two shots, fired a nice 1 1/4 inch group at 100 yards, jumped on a plane out to Saskatchewan where I took a very nice whitetail buck. It's taken lot's more game since. I still have it and hunt with it every season even though I have many more guns now.
