First was a Remington 742 30-06 that I received for my 15th Christmas in '71. Killed a boxcar full of deer with it.....and no, it never jambed. But, boy was it heavy....

The latest for deer, and everything else for the last 5 years, has been a Montana in 7-08. There have been a few in between, but this Montana is so sweet to carry all day long.

My heart's in the mountains, my heart is not here.
My heart's in the mountains, chasing the deer.
