My first 30-06, very promising....

[caramel]

...This is the first 30-06 i buy myself for hunting, never needed one, for the mean time i will shoot it with one of my Hilux CMR 1X4X24 ( such a fantastic scope ) may even leave it on for hunting, she was a beauty on the little picture i saw when i bought it, very nice in my hands and quite light and the trigger is sssweet, breaking clean at 42 ounces and being a Swiss, i know it will shoot... Bigs thanks to Clay and staff... JP.

Quite surprised myself cheating my 308's with a 30-06... JP.

 

[j.krug]

That's a fine looking rifle there for sure...a real beauty!

 

[canoetrpr]

Absolutely gorgeous. Bought my first 30-06 myself in a Winchester Model 70 FW.

 

[Mike Oxbig]

I've never owned a 30-06 and don't know why. It's a tested and true bullet. If something comes my way I likely wouldn't turn it down, especially one as nice as that.

it is betrayal,end of the story.
your id had been the equivalent to 308, now all is gone

 

[kamlooky]

I've never owned a terdy awt six and to top this off, I've never even pulled the trigger on one.
How's that for Fuddzieness?

 

[lilsurfer]

Never owned a 30.06 either...glad I'm not the only one! That is a beautiful rifle though. Love the wood especially.

 

[caramel]

It will have it's moment of glory in front, in the safe... for a while, very tru the wood is goergous, even my wife that never pass any comment on my rifles, asked yesterday, is that mohagany wood, it is so nice, that pleased me... JP.

 

[two-dogs]

My first hunting rifle was a 30-06, Rem 7400. I've had a couple of others since. The only 30-06 that I have now is a Ruger No.1 A, sure wish it was an AB.

 

[Bushbum40]

A swiss what? What is the make of that piece of art?

 

[looch]

What was wrong with your other thread that made you decide to start this one?

 

[crazy_davey]

Never to old to get my first 30-06....

There will be another when he prints off some 1/2" groups with that bad boy as well!

There will be another when he prints off some 1/2" groups with that bad boy as well!

From 20 yards too

 

[caramel]

20 yards is for a kid with a slingshot... The rifle is a Sig Swiss Arm Deluxe SHR 970 in 30-06... JP.

 

[caramel]

... And, i am not sure a 30-06 is capable of shooting sub half moa on a constant base but .7 .8 would be nice... JP.

 

[kamlooky]

So J.P., didja name this one Robert?
Another fine piece of art...............dang it...............

 

[caramel]

Got to shoot my Swiss Sig 30-06 yesterday and all i can say is this rifle is capable of MOA with cheap Corelockts 180 gr, 20 rounds aint much but did showed the tru color of this rifle, it will be a pleasure to devellop a load for such a nice and well made rifle, stay tuned... JP.

 

[The Kurgan]

The way a rifle should look! Well done Caramel.. and yes, 30-06 is at least as good as 308... and just as accurate.
