I went long action with a 6.5-06AI. Also went heavy barrel but fluted to keep the weight down. Told Big Brother it was my 600-yard clay pigeon rifle. Little did I know at the time how right I was.

Now I wish I had one in a sporter weight as well.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
