In today's show, Luke visits with his friend David Williams from New Mexcio. David and his wife Regina own Hunters Supply (www.hunterssupply.com) and make millions of bullets each year. Today's topic is the venerable old 30-30. Luke began his deer hunting career back in the early sixties shooting a 30-30 and his interest in this great old deer hunting cartridge was rekindled when Williams presented Luke with a Marlic 336 C, identical to the one Luke began hunting with. The ole 'thutty-thutty' was a great deer cartridge then and it remains so today.
