I'll do that longball, thanks!
This should qualify.... 1937 Remington Model 341
Pretty average Joe rifle, Ruger M77 MKII All Weather in 30-06. Has a Vortex Viper HS 2.5-10x44 scope mounted in Warne medium rings and a Rifle Basic trigger. Also has a cheap cheap sling.

Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong.
Rem 700 BDL in 30-06 from 1971. I shot my first deer with this rifle in 1995 and it has been handed down to me to be mine now. Stripped and cleaned it. It was very gunky, but lots better. Trigger and bolt operate like new. Going to leave it as “average joe” as it is. Red field 3-9x scope, 5lb stock trigger. No pillars or bedding at this time. Probably won’t need it to be a 200 yard hunting rifle.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

Stole the Sig Romeo 5 off the Spanish Mauser, and put it on the Lee Enfield. A red dot equipped defensive gun needs to be fast, and have 10 rounds. The Mauser will get the scout scope. I'm much happier now. The Enfield is a quick, smooth shooter.
It's like a bolt action SOCOM 16.
