I killed my first white tail with an old (1920's) Winchester Model 94 in 32 Winchester Special. Later in life I switched to a bolt action rifle. I moved to Florida 20 years ago and sold most of my hunting rifles. The hunting bug hit me again and I went back to the basics. I have two vintage Winchesters in 32 Special, one Marlin 1894 in 32-20 and an Ithaca Model 49 single shot .22. I will be switching again to a double rifle...but that is another story.
