My first rifle was a Winchester 94 rifle in 30-30. I hunted with it for about 10-12 years, then it got set aside in favor of scoped rfiles. When I needed money after a divorce about 20 years ago, I unwisely sold it. Not that I shot it or hunted with it that much, but it was a very fine rifle, shot well and killed everything I shot at. I almost always shot 170 gr. It worked.
