I like mine a lot, too. Basically the same rifle as Jim's except the stock is painted black. It's also been abused more over a somewhat longer life.

Mine changes scopes frequently, since it's accurate enough to use as a test rifle for scopes and ammo. Right now it has a 4.75x Weaver Grand Slam, and weighs 6 pounds 4 ounces with the scope. If you can afford a NULA it's probably the top lightweight .30-06.
