Winchester or Marlin lever guns are still my primary doe thumpers. No optics, but sometimes I cheat a bit and use those with receiver sights. ;O)

A deer season would not be complete, without at least one day spent carrying a lever rifle. If a dandy buck appears out there at 300 yards while doin' it, so be it. Them's the breaks.


If three or more people think you're a dimwit, chances are at least one of them is right.
