If it's a grab the rifle and head out the door situation?

the rifle I grab is a Rem700 in 30-06. It's an Old ADL that I added a laminated stock to. Originally it was a 25-06, but way too many 100gr bullets downrange infront of "unwise" ammounts of IMR4831 sent most of the throat downrange as well, so when it came time to rebarrel it I put a 22" takeoff barrel on it.

I'm about to rebarrel it again with a new stainless steel takeoff barrel 24" long.
And I'll probably Pillar bed the laminated
stock.

My load? a 165gr Nosler Ballistic tip (for practice)
or a 165gr Nosler Partition (I wish Nosler would make a 165gr Accubond) for "Warshots" in
front of as much RL22 as I can fit into a neck
sized R-P case.

If someone told me I'd have to shoot a Moose or Elk
(I WISH!!!) I'd use either a 165gr Partition
or 165gr TSX... Though I'm pretty sure I have a couple of CaseGuard 50rd boxes full of loaded 165gr XLC-BT's that's work just fine....

If I provoke you into thinking then I've done my good deed for the day!
Those who manage to provoke themselves into other activities have only themselves to blame.
