I have never owned a 30-06, until I recently inherited a left-hand 110 CL Savage from my wife's dad. I had gotten the rifle for him, used, years ago, when I had a FFL. The rifle always shot very well and he killed several elk and deer with it over the years. I like 150 Interlocks, so that is the bullet that got the nod for testing. A heavy load of IMR4451 got me right at 3000 fps and I shot a four-shot, 1 3/4-inch group, at 300 yards using his old Redfield scope.

I was considering re-barreling the rifle, but that ain't hapnin now!.

You did not "seen" anything, you "saw" it.
A "creek" has water in it, a "crick" is what you get in your neck.
Liberals with guns are nothing but hypocrites.
