In my opinion, for a rifle to be "tasteful" no single portion shoud stand out and each should complement the whole. When you first look at it you shuld think - "wow, what a lovely rifle" - rather than "look at that engraving" Anyone who claims the 30-06 is ineffective has either not tried one, or is unwittingly commenting on their own marksmanship Phil Shoemaker Alaska Master guide FAA Master pilot NRA Benefactor www.grizzlyskinsofalaska.com | |||

Phil, You hit the nail on the head. No one part of a rifle should make you overlook the rest. I like somebody to admire my whole rifle and then look at the individual items. Butch | |||
