    The 3006 is the best selling cal in the whole of the north American,still very popular overseas. Too many hip office workers in nz have taken up hunting and made the 7m-08 the best selling cal here. Its just the in thing but no difference to a 308...fact is still think the 308 with its better range of projectiles is better and is the mans choice lol

    I picked up an old M1917.Still experimenting with what it likes( so far 150 corelokt or super X) With the weight its nice to shoot with 150's, recoils less than my 308 howa. Running 180's give a bit more recoil but nothing unmanageable.
    Recoils only noticed on the bench anyhow. The only drawback is finding the right flavour ammo in shops.
