[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 1936272, member: 26077"] What do you defenders of the 30-06 not understand about the fact some of us don't like the cartridge and in my case haven't for over 60 years. I well know the performance characteristics of it, its history and have shot many of them. No one is ever going to talk me into changing my mind on this or the 270. The OP posted that the gun shoots fine, the two wrong loads will have done zero damage in the 06 as neither were a larger projectile and that he specifically wants to keep the original barrel but wants something other than an 06. The 338/06 and 35 Whelen are reasonable suggestions, to tell him to suck it up and live with the 06 isn't really helpful, nor are suggestions to re-barrel since he specifically doesn't want to do that. Like I said before, 35W is a great choice and getting the action cleaned up at the same time will make a very nice and functional piece that you will be able to hand down to your children. [/QUOTE]
