Adolph Minar restocked 1903 Spfld in 30-06
Phil Shoemaker Alaska Master Guide, Alaska Hunter Ed Instructor FAA Master pilot www.grizzlyskinsofalaska.comAnyone who claims the 30-06 is not effective has either not used one, or else is unwittingly commenting on their marksmanship.

One thing for sure, when it comes to Whitetail rifles, the word classic means different things to different people. We have seen heavy and light, wood and synthetic, bolts, single shots, levers, calibers all over the board.
Perhaps we should ask, what defines a classic Whitetail rifle? Doubt that will clear much up either.

I have just enjoyed looking at people's rifles the way they are used. It's interesting to me as well what classic means to those who reply. Hopefully we will get to see some more of these beautiful rifles No matter what the specifics!

My 'classic' bolt action scoped deer rifles would have to be a pair of DWM custom Mausers in 6.5 Swede and 7x57mm Mauser, fine oil finished walnut and polished blue steel. Gunner The little Swede scored again today, down in Arkaksas on a doe cull hunt, hit doe number one this morning below the left eye, [all I could see was two ear tips and the eye, very thick] the 140 gr Partition ranged down her neck and exited between the shoulder and brisket area, DRT, the little Swede never ceases to impress me with the level of accuracy, penetration, and performance for such a mild mannered cartridge. Hopefully more to come tomorrow. Gunner
Trump Won!
