Default RE: What was your first deer rifle?

308 rem 7600 pump, 12 years old shot a Mulie doe with my uncle on a special antlerless youth draw in Nov weather was cool but tolerable, a skiff of snow on the ground and never put the safety off on the first attempt, but made good on the second once the safety was off..however pulled it a foot or so and banged her at the base of the neck and the body at 150 yards. I followed up that with my first whitetails the next week in the forest, both were bucks 3x3 basket and nice little 4x4 both shot in the H/L region. My Dad and uncles were on the trip and I witnessed my first bull moose as dad harvested a nice 3 year old bull (wow was he emense compared to my deer). I remember it was darn cold and over a foot of snow on the ground.
