RE: Best 30-06 for the money.
 

I see you are from Atikokan. I used to hunt alot around Ignace. Truly great country. As for your rifle, check out the Tikka T3 stainless/synthetic. It is nice and light, will outshoot just about any thing else short of the big dollar rifles and even will outshoot most of them. It also has a removable clip. They retail for around $800.00 CDN. Welcome to the board!

Savage 110 in 3006, bought mine 20 years ago and still enjoy it I have more expensive
guns but I always take this one deer hunting.

My vote would be a Savage model 16f stainless I bought one in .300 wsm last yr.........Paid about $675 with a Leupold VXII scope and rings. Couldn't ask for a more accurate rifle!!!..........I did have the trigger worked on. But it shot great b-4 and even better after.

Glob!

NEF handi rifle $192.00 and you can order different barrels in different calibers.

RE: Best 30-06 for the money.
 

Savage has started selling synthetic-stocked 110's under the Stevens name for about $250. These rifles don't have the Accu-Trigger but are 110's in every other respect. I don't see how you can go wrong for that kind of money.

Or, look for a good used Savage. I've seen rifle/scope combos selling in pawn shops for under $250, and most have been 30-06's. If I weren't left-handed, I'd probably have a few of them myself.

Hopefully this list is not in the order of preference..Handi Rifle while a good value( I own exactly 1 of them) cannot compare to the 3 listed below.

Another vote for the Tikka T3 - they leave the factory with a 1 inch grouping at 100 yards guarantee.

RE: Best 30-06 for the money.
 

Before I bought the Savage I was looking for a Tikka. They seem to be great guns, but are nearly impossible to get as of late. I tried for 3 months before giving up.

RE: Best 30-06 for the money.
 

I'd have to go with remington. The new 700 SPS is offered in stainless or blued and retails less than the bdl and most other rifle out there except probably a new england or a savage. Just a note, remington discontinued the 700 adl and replaced it with the 700 sps. good looking gun, affordable, remington, what could be better?

I bought a Mossberg 100ATR bolt action 4 round top load magazine and has a semi bull barrel at Walmart $244.00 This this little puppy is a tack driver full floated barrel but does not come with sites but does come with scope mounts. Light and easy to carry all metal is parkerized except bolt and comes in synthetic stock. Not much to look at one one accurate shooter and Mossberg customer service Is #1. Jimmy
P.S. You can get it in .270 or 30.06
