I bought a 6 MM Rem. on Pages recommendation and used it as my only rifle for years. I killed several hundred Texas cull deer and lots of coyotes/pigs with it. It is a Ruger 77 flat bolt/tang safety with a 1500 serial # and 2x7 Redfield; brand new in 1969. It still shoots about 3/4" with 90 gr. NP handloads.
It has been retired and I now use a Ruger 77 long action tang safety in 6.5 Rem. with 125 NP for the same duties. More bullet moving a little faster; 3315 fps.
Page was a genius!
