If you could have only ONE rifle, what would it be? #18918 11/30/00

Anonymous Unregistered A	I know, I know. We've all done this before, but it's always interesting to hear what different people value in the one-gun rifle.<P>I would choose a pre-64 Winchester Model 70 in .30-06, 23-inch barrel, no open sights, no muzzle-break. I would put it into a MacMillan Bros. synthetic stock, pillar/steel bedded, of course. I would put Leupold rings and bases, and a Leupold VXIII 2.5x8 with a matte finish. I would put a Harris bipod on it, the tallest one with swivel, and a 1-inch military sling.<P>I would develop a load that shot 180-grain Nosler Partitions at near 2800 fps, with 1-MOA of accuracy (this is theory, OK).<P>If I could get all that together, I submit that you couldn't find a better one-rifle rig for North America. Ain't been made!<P>Course, I'd still want another rifle, but we'll leave that for another thread. <P>How about you?<P>Timber
