    Does this 303 require much to get it up to speed to shoot dear without spending a whole lot of money on her , as that would defeat the purpose of buying her..

    Could i get your opinion on this ol girl for a first deer gun , untill i buy a decent 308 .
    Thanks in advance

    The decision is more about how much space you have in your gun safe, I say you should buy it and use it until you can save up and buy your .308...gun safes should be full, as rifles are a companion thing and need lots of friends...of course once you have lots of guns then one has to ponder the decision of which one to take on a hunt and then worry all day that you took the right one.
