[QUOTE="Bill in AZ, post: 2128174, member: 117241"] I burn most of my powder target shooting in competition but just this past December I built up a 30-06 heavy barrel target rifle just because I wanted to do this for 20 years. It is too heavy for field carry use but **** this rifle shoots nearly like a benchrest rifle. I am getting 175 grain Berger bullets going 2950 fps with no signs of high pressure and the recoil is real mild (no doubt due the the heavy 29" barrel) I cut the chamber with a 30-06 Serengeti reamer from PT&G in a Bartlien 5R barrel and it is all I hoped for. My primary big game rifle is a Browning Stainless Stalker in 30-06 and it has served me well for at least 20 years. 30-06 still has purpose in hunting and beyond. [/QUOTE]
