My tang safety 30-06 with an older style USMC mil dot leupold with target turrets.
Paid 500 for the rifle and 275 for the scope. Only wish it had a touch heavier barrel

Classic and can do 90% of what a shooter/hunter needs a rifle to do. My go-to, do-all rifle is pretty similar - a M77 flatbolt RS in .308 with a 3.5-10x Leupold VX3i with Boone & Crockett reticle. With 165 grain Nosler Partition handloads, I'm good for most hunting situations short of the really bigs that bite back.
 
My old M77 30-06 is a 'PL' Liberty I purchased in 1976, and I put a Redfield 6X scope on sighted it in at 200 yards shooting 180 grain silver tips & it has never let me down or my sons. They have their own but they always what my rifle.
 
Here is Ruger 77 MK2 30/06. Not much left that's factory except the action and bolt. ER Shaw heavy barrel, Timney trigger, and Boyds stock. Lugs have been lapped. It is a tack driver.

We have a whole lot of new rounds that really don't do anything that much better than the old stuff.. nice rifle Sir.
