[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2311669, member: 10755"] Your buddy is a genuine guy. That was a nice gift. My buddy shoots a 30-06, it’s his only rifle. We were chewing the fat about a few cartridges and he is really interested in my 17 Remington. I told him I would build him a rifle on a trued short action I have in my possession, it’s a CM action and has no owner, so I told him he could have it. After gathering a barrel, stock, trigger and bottom metal, I gave him the rifle and said he owed me for the parts, and that’s all. About a week later he showed up at my door with a bucket. I looked him up and down and said what’s this, he responded by opening the lid…it was full to the brim with 20 years worth of his 30-06 brass, which was all R-P 150g Core Lokt brass. I never even knew he saved any of it. I keep it for my 338-06, as I have hundreds of 25-06 brass and will never need to form any from the 30-06 brass. He loves that rifle and brings out ‘on special occasions’ only. Seen him take a fox a 450 metres with that rifle on 3 occasions now, it has only just sped up and shoots itty bitty groups. Cheers.
