I am 66 and plan on going back to my 1974 Remington 760 30-06 this season. I drank the Model 70 cool-aid a few years back and got a 1951 standard weight 30-06. Darn thing feels like an anvil in my hands, hard as heck to hold for any but the closest off-hand shot. The 760 and the Renegade muzzle loader both point a great deal better. I will probably move to a reduced recoil load as I get older (assuming, and hoping, that I do get older!). If I move away from the 30-06, it will likely be to the 7-08.


The biggest problem our country has is not systemic racism, it's systemic stupidity.
