I can tell you that my first memory of my dad haveing adeer rifle was a model08 Rem. in 35 Rem.. Although i don't know for sure, i'd be willing to bet he harvested around 100 deer with it... Maybe more??? He made unbelievable shots with that rifle, but then got the HP bugaround 1960and moved on to an Rem. semi auto in 30-06...
