I'm going to claim the distinction of the Fudd because I used an H&R Topper at 14 with 150 round nose, then at 16 I bought my own Mod 94 Classic Carbine, also with 150 round nose and later a Model 742 '06 all walnut/blued and all had iron sights. In fact I didn't buy/use my first scope until I was 23 yrs old! ha I used 150 Clkts in the '06, later the 165 SBT. ha Good times.
