My father is a life long 30-06 guy. He tends to shoot 165g factory ammo. He wants a new elk/deer rifle. He’s approaching 70.
I’m thinking a 280 would fit the bill.
500 yard elk and deer rifle.
No magnum recoil.
Decent BC’s with controlled expansion hunting bullets.
The savage seems to fit the bill. Easier than having one built.
5r barrel, detach box mag, ect.
Would likely replace the stock, probably with a B&C.
Would likely be shooting copper solids 143 or 155 Hammer hunter.
Tell me what you think.
