[QUOTE="del2les, post: 1983209, member: 9299"] As an early 20 something, I acquired a very modified 1917 Enfield 27" 4 groove in 30-06, and while the bore was in good shape, the throat was so long, I could not touch the lands with a 165 SGK and keep enough neck tension on the bullet. I could load that 165GK atop 61gr of IMR4350 and break 3,100fps without flattening the primers! Incredibly, it would hold about MOA with that load, but I never became a fan of that rifle and after a couple of seasons, traded it. [/QUOTE]
