I used a 30-06 almost exclusively until about 15 years ago when I made the switch to 308. Does the same thing with the bullet weights I use with a little less recoil and rifle weight. Uses about 10-12 gr less powder every time I pull the trigger too and that does add up.

Since 2008 my go-to rifle has been a Winchester EW. I found a used McMillan Edge stock for it here in the classifieds a year later. I also have a Tikka virtually identical to bsa's rifle. I have Cabela's Instinct 3-9X40's on both. Same scope as the Zeiss Conquest with Cabelas badges on it.


Most people don't really want the truth.

They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.
