    But some of the things that are considered 'sexy' leave me at a bit of a loss. Like some of the little 6.5 cartridges.

    I know some people are afraid the .30-06 kicks too much, or that its too 'big'. But it is very popular everywhere else, particularly in Africa and Europe. Suprisingly, the .30/06 is quite popular in the UK, from what I am told.
    The 30:06 AI I have ( the Alan Carr made one) only boots with a hot load behind the 208 amax, using the 165's it's about the same as the .280 and the .264 mag. I'm probably going to sell it on along with the .264 mag not because of recoil but just the weight of the rifles coupled with my hand and wrist problems (arthritis)
