Saw a 742 BDL in .3006 yesterday ( folks running 180s or heavier in the .3006 the reported rail chewing culprits ).

It still had hang tag. Orig owner, unfired.

Dunno what it was going to be priced at.

Even of pristine and to be shot little, that gas block weld/ location could end up causing Mini 14 itis.

Had a minty carbine 3006 so afflicted. Cold bore was 1" high at 100 yds. Next couple werr in decent group 7 inches or so lower.

Let it cool snd itd repeat the cold to hot jump.

No wonder it was in such great shape LOL
I traded it back where I got it.
