1917 Enfield that my brother-inlaw restocked, scoped, cleaned up beautifully. Mike gave me that rifle 55 years ago, I was 11 and I could close the bolt against the heavy spring easily so he determined I was big enough for that 30-06. I was one proud youngster. 20 years ago I re-barreled to 338-06, great rifle.
My first single shot was a Ruger #1 in 222 Rem, should have kept that one.
