Well...after about 24 years of hunting with my Marlin 336 in .35 Rem...I think it's about time I moved into this century for a new hunting rig. And here is it...finally all put together (sorry for the picture quality):
[Broken External Image]:
Browning X-Bolt in .25-06 - 24" barrel
Sightron SII Big Sky 3-12x42 w/ hold-over reticle
Browning X-Lock (Talley) Integral Rings/Bases
Haven't had the chance to shoot it yet...so the only thing I can tell you is this: I need to invest in the company that manufactures the "rust preventative" Browning coats their guns in for shipment. I only say this because there was enough of it in/on my new gun to coat 3 guns. Took about 10 passes with a combination of Bore-Snake & patches to finally get it all out of the bore.
Thanks for looking!
