Other then kills with AR15s and FALs nearly all my kills have been with classics. I have never owned a sporting rifles with a plastic stock. I have nothing against them, but they just don't interest me at all.
Here is one of the VERY few pictures I have of a kill. I shot this young buck Prong-Horn 4 days ago.

I have hunted for over 50 years in many states and a few other countries, but until a few years ago I never owned a camera. And in the last few years I have forgotten to take it on my hunts.

So this is very rare for me.
But the little carbine is a classic for sure, and I made the shot from 177 yards and killed it with a neck shot.
