Im a sucker for 1960 era Rem 700s n picked up a 30-06 BDL for 350 bucks.This thing looked like it was never wiped down amazingly there was no rust anywhere.
I know it was a hunter who owned it cuz the oposite side to the bolt has beltbuckle n zipper dents in it.
After giving this rifle the A-Z and freefloating the barrel, adjusting the trigger to 2# I took it to the range.I zeroed it with federal bluebox factory 180s at 100yds and didn't that 50 yr old rifle shoot a 3 shot group that was well inside a dime.
I am absolutely thrilled with this rifle and what a trigger. It saddens that these gems are being torn apart for the actions.I was raised hunting as a young man using these fine weapons and every time I shoot one my father comes to mind.
Has anybody else found a diamond in the rough like I have? Tell your story. I will die with this one,she's a keeper!
