30-06 Recoil is ok.
Noticeable when sighting in etc but manageable.
Shooting animals don't feel a thing.
Stock fit helps.
Always thought 270 worse.

I have a spare sight protector for that model if you would like it.
Probably 1640 by the look of the barrel length.
My two are made in 57 [30 06] and 63 [9.3x62].
I'd get another in a heart beat, great well made rifles and accurate to boot, some trigger work needed if your as finiky as me but not really needed.
pm me if you would like the protector.
Just cause I’m bored at home so gave some stuff a oil up

All good apart from the crocs.
@jakewire If Beavis doesn't want that front sight protector can I grab it
@Marty Henry
Sure can
We could discuss mine, it's had a bit of work done eg recoil pad fitted and bedded by Jim Carlson, I have another one in mind.
30-06's slightly bigger cousins are great too, 8mm-06, 35 Whelan and 9.3x62 (a yank/kraut cross, full yank and purebred Kraut) - authoritative would be the word, now watch some bugger come along and politise that!!
