My first was a wonderful 7MM Model 95 Mauser. The last was a Model 94 Win. 30-30. Those sure do multiply but i promise no more.

Well....now my "last" is a Model 700 BDL SS in 264WM, 26" barrel. For slipping around in the woods, either of my Mountain rifles (Mark V ULWT/Kimber 8400) are as snappy as my old Mod 94 Classic with its octagon barrel.

Everyone knows killing a deer with a 244 is impossible because it’s got a slow twist. whistle

If it was my bullet that killed this one, then it was a $5 Mauser 98 7.92x57. with issue sights - Norma ammo. This was the first deer I ever shot at. It ran 50 yards all down hill.

The next one would have been with a '03 Springfield with a K4 scope, either with cast bullets or 180 grain core lokts.

I hope I’ve not shot my last one.

While my first deer fell to my dad's Winchester Model 94 30-30 (which I still have).

My first deer rifle was a 1975 Remington Model 700 BDL 30-06 that I bought new (my dad did the paperwork).

My latest was picked up today, one of the Lipsey Ruger M77 Hawkeye "African" in 35 Whelen. I'm going to mount a Zeiss Conquest 2.5-8X32mm with a plex reticle and call it good.

First deer fell to my old ‘94 .30 WCF. given to me by my Grandma in 1965.
My most recent by the up-dated more modern equivalent; a Rem. Model 7 in 7mm-08.
Both are real handy.

First rifle was Winchester Model 94 30-30 from my mother when she passed (I was 15). Now, at 85, have a custom Remington 7mm-08.

Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to die and too old to
take an ass whoopin'
