Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Surely none of you are crass enough to use a 30-06 on deer!

wink_man,

Downright PURTY rifle!!!!

I currently have 3 Model 760 rifles in .30-06 & none that have wood that handsome.

Fwiw, my "truck gun" is a Model 760 (with a 2X scope) from AUG 1957 & my usual load for it is "Mexican match", i.e., Lake City Match, with the FMJ bullet pulled & replaced with a JSP.
(That rifle shoots FAR better, even with the good scope, than I do with my 72YO eyes. - Thankfully, the ranges to hunt WT/exotics in South TX are short & the deer are numerous, everywhere.)

yours, tex
