my dad and i both have and hunt with 303's. they are really great guns. he wont hunt with any other gun and has been hunting with it for as long as i can remember. about 20 years i think and has taken deer almost every year with it. his gun is all original, and mine is sporterized with buckhorn sights. i can't stand shooting with the peep sights. but my dad is deadly acurate with them, and NEVER and i mean NEVER misses. and i cant seem to figure that out. but he is good with peep sights.
