[QUOTE="Doc Mach, post: 3006966, member: 79577"] I still find them “walking about” in gunshows. The last one I bought (Nov 2023) had PO Ackley stamped on the barrel and the guy selling it was apologetic that it was “just a 30.06”. I gave him a suggestion and offered that a properly loaded 30.06, shooting a bullet complementing a given barrel twist rate was going to knock the socks off of most, if not all, North American game one might desire. (I find 165-180 grains normally does the trick. I quickly paid him the meager price he had it marked For Sale and told him it was going to “a good home.” It now has a prestigious location in my “go to” rack - Good Hunting! [/QUOTE]
