Don't have any pictures to post but I love using my 30-30 and 35 Remington hunting hogs here in Texas. Hogs don't like the 30-30 much but they absolutely hate the 35 Rem!!

Not many Winchester 1895s on this thread, so here's my contribution. I got this one in the mid '90s when they came out with a new batch and have used it on a few antelope and deer. If I ever draw a ND elk tag, I'm going to hunt with a replica of Theodore Roosevelt's favorite rifle (in 30-06, rather than 405 Win) in his western ND stompin' grounds.

So cool. For one of my next hunting trips abroad I think I’m going to acquire an 1895 in 405 just to larp as Teddy. How do you like it in 30-06?

It's great. Plenty accurate and seems to kick less than my M70 in 3006. My furthest shot was 300+ yards on a deer.
