My dad has a sporterized, it was the first center fire rifle I shot as a kid and one of the many reasons I still shoot 30-06 caliber.
That said, it's a pretty spooky gun with the way the safety works and I was lucky to hit a paper plate at 100 yards. Both could be attributed to me or that specific rifle as I've only shot one and the last time I shot it was probably 25 years ago.
