[QUOTE="fiftybmg, post: 1716864, member: 96316"] My desicion to try the 30-06 came to me when I picked a 30-06 case out of a batch of rifle brass I was prepping. Likely came in with other brass from the previous range session. Handling the case is different to looking at a case diagram. I usually pass the case diagram in my Hornady book on the way to 308 Norma. Handling the case, it seemed to me to have a goose-neck. That caused something to click in my recesses, and I recalled reading about very efficient and accurate loads, that they favor long-necked cases where the bullets are not seated into the powder column. On that basis I found and bought a mint condition LSA-65 in 30-06. So mint, the magazine follower and ramp are unmarked. Haven't got to the accuracy part yet, but looking forward to it. [/QUOTE]
