I’ve got more memories with the 30-06 than with any other cartridge.
The top one was the first hunting rifle I purchased - a post 64 that has plenty of wear on it. After sighting this in 46 years ago I’ve yet to have to make an adjustment. This after many falls and a flight down a canyon and landing scope first on a stump.
The middle one is one my Father purchased for his collection. He asked me if I were going to get a rifle, what would I get? Winchester stainless 70 in 06. This showed up in his collection shortly after and I was fortunate to inherit it after his passing. I’ve used it on deer, elk and antelope.
The bottom is a pre 64 I was lucky to get from a fellow member. Waiting on some hardware to mount a scope.
Special meaning as it is similar to rifle my Dad hunter Blacktail deer with for many years. Looking forward to making some noise with this.
If I were forced to only have one rifle, the stainless 06 would be the one as I can do all I need to do with that one.
