I never really had much of a desire to have an 06 and then I inherited a left-hand Savage 110, when my fil died. It is a real nice-looking rifle and so I thought that I would load up some Hornadys and kill some deer with it. It shoots the 150 Interlocks at 3000 fps extremely well. I have lots of opportunity, as I do depredation work on my neighbor's farm. That 150 hammers deer and I have shot a number of them with it. One evening, six does appeared in a field that I was watching. Only three made it out.

I have become a real fan of the 6.5s-Creed and .260. I was considering making the 06, a 6.5-06, but it shoots so well, that I decided to get some more casings and build up my 06 stash! The one thing that I do not like, is that rifle kicks worse than my 7 mags. That original hard butt plate is no joke! I may have to cure that.


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.
