Nothing wrong with a 308 as yr 1st,I had a mossburg 308 package deal $750, 20yrs ago.Shot 100s of roos and deer with it,that rifle still working today.Forum members son on here still uses it tipping deer over.Quote:

Latest purchase was this Winchester 94 deluxe, yet to fire a round out of it. Hopefully get it zeroed and knock over a roaring red before they shut up shop

Rebuilt this sportered K98 recently, first with a postwar yugo stock. Had my eye on this final piece of the puzzle -an original WW2 laminated stock. Thanks to Heath on here who got me the deal. Not pretty but now feels like it has that history to it.

My .22lr Brno Collection
I'm a young lad, but the modern stuff has never really appealed to me, and so happens don't have a single synthetic stocked rifle in my collection. I've really taken a liking to the Brno's, and just found a model 5 the other day. I also have a voere B/A and a TOZ-16 single shot. Both also excellent rifles.
From bottom -
1950 Brno Model 1
1950s Brno Model 2 with straight stock profile (American? profile)
1970s Brno Model 5
Just had to have all of the sporter models. Have yet to shoot the model 5, need to find a period appropriate scope for it :thumbsup:
