I bought a barely used one over 30 years ago, also .25-06. Guy had installed a Canjar trigger, then his wife filed for divorce and he had to sell a bunch of stuff. It's still my favorite rifle.

Looked at one in 25-06 back in the 80's...alas an 18 year old kid working 2 part time jobs while going to trade school couldnt afford it, but I always thought it was the sexiest rifle ever. Fast forward 30 years I picked up an 1885 in 30-06...it just never did it for me. A few years ago I found a 78 in 6mm. Love that little rifle but still want one in 25-06!! LOL
