I had an 84L Select in 30-06 for a time. I liked everything about the gun except for the fact that it was too pretty to hunt with. It handled and shot like a dream but I had guns better suited for the abuse of actual hunting so we parted ways. I also had a Montana in .308 that was a great rifle - I just had no particular use for a .308 so it too went down the road. I could see myself with a Montana again in the future though.
