azsugarbear Report post Posted July 14, 2017 I have always used play-doh to fill gaps and holes in the action and car wax for a release agent. Never had any problems and it gives me a good, tight fit.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MULEPACKHUNTER Report post Posted July 31, 2017 90 percent completed now. So glad I stuck with this stock. My son grabbed this gun when he first started working a job and had his own money, later on he needed cash so I gave him 200.00 bucks with this as collateral. A year or so later he told me just to keep it and I later mentioned I sold it. This will be gift wrapped for his first elk hunt in December. I found another one just like it in a pawn shop and I may match them up and give the other one to my pops who has the same first elk tag. Both are 30-06. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MULEPACKHUNTER Report post Posted August 1, 2017 Ok now I need suggestions on a scope???? Don't really want to put a big long range type Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PRDATR Report post Posted August 2, 2017 I'd stick to about 15X max something in the neighborhood of 2x10, 3x15 would be plenty or at least that is a great range for that caliber in a factory setup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoss50 Report post Posted August 2, 2017 4x12x40 would fit pretty well for a 3006 I think. For a good budget friendly scope that gets it done I like the Redfield revolution series. They are made by Leupold in Oregon. I really like there hold over reticle. I currently have 4 of these scopes and like them all. My buddy has 1 on his 3006 and we have stretched it out to 500 yards with no problems. If you want to pay for a nicer scope by all means do, but don't overlook this one if this is your budget price range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
