I had to run over to Owatonna for groceries this afternoon, which means I also have to swing by Cabela's to look for bargains. They have a very nice O3-A3 that has been professionally sporterized with receiver sights, no scope base holes have been drilled.
Now, I would not mind having a 30-06, but the thought of shooting factory equivalent loads does not appeal at all. So that leaves cast boolits or maybe 100-125 grain J words. Then I got to thinking why? I have a 7.5 Swiss that is nearly the same thing. But it is not an '06 and not a 1903. And the price is very good.
I want it and I don't need it.
