What did you use to kill your first deer?
This is a sore subject for me, as I shot my first buck, a small Colorado muley 4x4, in the early 70s with my Win. m70 30-06. But 2 years earlier I had missed a huge 5x4 muley over 30" wide with high heavy antlers. I emptied my rifle on him and he ran right to another hunter who put him down... -

Shot the Tikka Swede

My Dad said the very same thing. He passed away a few years ago at the age of 93, and hunted all his life with only a 30-06. He shot everything from ground squirrels to elk with a good old 30-06. -
