I started out with an 8x57 Mauser sporter...my dad has always been a firm believer in bringing enough gun(my younger brother started with a .303 British)...I guess it rubbed off, when we bought our own rifles we both bought 30-06's(although since then I've switched to a .270 for the most part and he traded his '06 for a .308). What was your first and how has it affected your choices in rifles since then? First was a heavy azz sporterized m1917 in good ol 30-06. I still have a couple 30-06 rifles in the stable, but none are as heavy or as accurate as my first one. I was 12 when I started out with the 30-06 and it's been my favorite since. I damn sure won't forsake it for a 308 win, no matter how damn good people think the short .308 is. I still have MY 30-06(or rather a good friend of mine has it until he can swing a new rifle) and I always will(unless it ever gets down to that one or my .270...)
