I've lowered the price to $450 shipped. Thought someone might want one. *30/06

I'm afraid if no one needs one it'll end up a 6.5/06.

I always thought the .270 necked up to .30 caliber would be pretty cool.

that is a very nice looking Savage rifle ,maybe send a picture to Savage and tell them this what a classic Savage rifle should always look like nice wood and blued nicely. but as has been said i have alot of 30-06 rifles. > But it is tempting ?

It would be a sin to de-original that gun.

Roy,
What does it weigh as pictured? I am assuming you have a scale based on your collection.

They are very light mine doesn't quite weigh 7 lbs as pictured 30-06 #7xx 1 st year production and they do shoot nice. Shoot it the way it is because that's the way It used to be...……… MB

The original barrels aren't big enuf at the muzzle to do a rebore job to .338 or .358". These original 1 st and 2nd year production M110's handle very nicely as is. I think it would be a perfect gun for deer and antelope with 150 cup & cores or go hi tech and use the 130 gr Barnes X for a little higher vel if wanted. Right now mine has Weaver bases, high Weaver rings and a M8 4x Leupold on it, still very lite and sweet handling. It also shoots well with the barrel iron sights as shown in Fireballs pic. A guy don't need the high rings but I don't have to push my cheek into the comb hard and it just comes up right for me. MB

If I were starting out into the world of .30-06's all over again, I would snatch this one up. As far as my Savage "collecting" goes, post-war 99's and non-lever Savages are all pretty much outside my area of interest (although I did snag a nifty 219B in .25-20 from a member here recently that I'm dying to shoot- if danged deer season weren't interfering)!
