First time behind a 30-06

Re: First time behind a 30-06

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: aggiesig</div><div class="ubbcode-body">30-06 isn't bad I've run 50+ round 3 gun stages with my M1Garand (bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang PING!!!!) and lived to talk about it, I'm only 5'7" and at the tiem weighed about 160.

it's also bad if your using bad positioning on the bench. get a recoil pad, or put a rolled up towel in between you and the gun and you'll be fine. </div></div>

Again, comparing a M1 Garand to a light weight bolt action is like comparing a 3/4 ton pickup with a Chevelle that both run 350 small blocks........
IT AINT THE SAME!!!
