Savage 340C in .30-30 Win. I shot two deer with that until moving up to a .30-06.

Very first (and second) were with an old 40 lb Bear recurve. Both 8 pointers. First rifle kill was with a Savage 110 LH in .243. Boy I miss that old rifle. That rifle could shoot the gnats off a flys butt at 100 yds. But, being young and stupid, I traded it for something else. Don't remember what.

A slug gun (Remington 870 Express,grooved barrel) ,that's all i could afford at that time till i got my ".270",,took a Blacktail button horn on first shot, felled it over with that Remington slugger.

12 gauge DB, 000 buck shot, Doe, 40 years ago Best deer I ever shot. Much more exciting than a recent 10 point/142 B&C. Same thought for the other post about should a 12 year old shoot a 3" spike. Go for it it will still be his best deer.
