Weatherby Mk V Lightweight .30-06 24” barrel. Load was Federal 165 TSX until they stopped production, newer same load doesn’t shoot as well, so I switched to Barnes LR loads with 175 gr LRX. I killed my first buck with that rifle in 2007 and the 2024 buck. I think there are more .30-06’s at our club than others. There seems to be a few with interest in the 6.5 Creedmoor and almost none with a .308 Win.
