I love my ole lever gun. Marlin 30-30 AS. I think it was the least expensive of the Marlin lever guns(all I could afford at the time). It was my 1st deer rifle and I have taken many deer with it. Scratches...who cares...dings...who cares...It is light and short. Perfect for my thick woods.

I have taken varmints with it using 55gr accelerators also.

The collection has gotten larger since, but this is the rifle I grab when I hunt our NY woods.

That is my pick as well. My AS punches 1" patterns at 150 yards with LeveRevolution bullets.

My favorite is the rifle that used to be my Mom's deer rifle. It is a late 50's, or early 60's Remington Model 760 Gamemaster Carbine chambered in 30-06 with a Winfield 3x9x32 Scope in the old Weaver flip mounts.

Although I own others, this one has been my near constant companion for the past 28 years. Took my first deer with it in 1983 and took my deer last year with it also.
