In the early ‘60’s as a younger deer hunter, it was an old milsup (7mm Mauser) purchased from Woolworth with the only concern being absolutely sure that your ammo was expandable - little money, little concern for accuracy, just the youthful joy of hunting.
The thing I remember most vividly as a youngster hunter was hunting an entire season, first light to last light, and never laying eyes on even one deer - but I was in the woods and that is all that counted. Fast forward to today’s deer herd, we are walking in very tall cotton - deer everywhere!
