The last deer I shot with the 30/30 was in 2005.
I was shooting my dad's 1956 vintage 94.
The deer ran out of the really thick under brush to my right and slightly behind me.
She was running at full speed in full bound and didn't see me.
I heard her coming and was "at the ready" when she came busting out of the cover.
I had to shoot in self defense at almost muzzle contact distance or she would have landed on top me.
After the shot their was blood on the rifle barrel believe it or not.
