Thanks, I would really like to know. I am in the market now for a 30 06. Was looking at a new Mossberg, new Rem 770, used Howa stainless, cz 550 premium (although just out of price range) or maybe one of the other staples like Smith I-bolt. Also saw a new Browning A-bolt walnut for $499 (same as the CZ). Liked the Mossy as I have a couple mossy shotguns and love them and have seen nothing but good reviews......

where did you see the pics of blowups and what is the cause? Any help on which model would help also.
