My brand new Model 70 .30-06 Supergrade is finally sighted in. The gun shot under an inche with 180 grain Winchester silver balistic tips. I haven't tried any other ammo yet. Gun kicks like most 30-06's so don't think the "pachmeyer" pad will will save you. I shot off 25 rounds and was flinching like a mother flincher by the end. The action on the gun is superb and the fit and finish are excellent. To me, the gun feels like a high end rifle in my hands. I would definately recomend this gun to somebody else. The only thing a do not like about the gun is the finish on the stock. I would prefer a high gloss finish over the satin finish but thats just me and cosmetic.
PS - the gun shot under an inche and I was using a 2.5-8x scope with the German#4 crosshair which is really thick and I can't even see an inche dot at 100. The gun will more than likely be able to acieve 1/2" groups once I get some handloads developed!
