When I mentioned in my first post a month ago that I have been hunting with a .308 bolt gun for more than 50 years, I forgot my trusty 30/30 Winchester 94 that is always there, too. Sometimes I forget that the 30/30 was my first love and was never really replaced. The .308 bolt gun was/is the only other rifle I have ever owned that everyone said I had to have because deer, elk and antelope had changed. The 30/30 couldn't do the job any longer. Guess I'll keep it anyway. Maybe the deer, elk and antelope will change again.
