Still own that rifle also...probably taken a dozen or so deer with it over the years. As I got older and needed glasses to hunt with... I didn't use it as much since it wasn't set up with a scope on it.

As I have aged, I love the 30/30 case or its bullet speed. I load a lot of different calibers to hunt with, that duplicate 30/30 MV out of bolt action rifles... from 243 to 338/06. Most of the deer I've ever taken have been at 200 yds or under.
