Wait, wait, wait.......

You mean to tell me that there is actually someone on here that put together an "all around rifle" and has stuck with it for 35+ years?! Can't be......

Couple years back I got a T3X in 30-06 and put a Loopy 2.5-8 on it for the same purpose. Looks to be in good company.

Congrats on the elk!
