I have been taking my nephew out hunting for this being the 5th year now and since he has outgrown the youth size .243 we bought for him my father in-law (his grandpa) gave us his old 30-06. It is an old Peruvian 1935 that has been sporterized. It has a Bushnell Banner 4x scope on it and I have to say I was really surprised with this rifle. It looks nice, isn't all that heavy and shoots really nice too. Who ever did the work on it did a nice job with the trigger. It breaks very crisp at just under 3lbs.
Anyone else have one of these?

I looked real hard at a sporterized 98' chambered in 25-06 with a timney trigger this spring. Those old rifles can be really nice!

I have a sporterized mauser in 7x57 with a cheaper 3x9 scope I used to deer/elk hunt with absolutely love it but ammo is getting pretty spendy so decided to go with my remmy 760 .30-06 pump which is still fairly cheap in my neck of the woods.
