The need to suppress sound when hunting is finally getting its day. This XPR has all the proven accuracy that is built into this model. It also has the renowned three lever MOA trigger system -- a design proven on the legendary Model 70. The addition of a threaded barrel makes it easy for those in areas where a suppressor is allowed and those who have acquired the necessary paperwork, to hunt quietly for various reasons: to not spook other game and varmints after firing , to protect the hearing of yourself and those around you and to be a good neighbor in areas where less noise would be appreciated. And the threaded barrel also allows the mounting of a muzzle brake when recoil is your concern.

Caliber Dictionary
The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
Properly "Caliber 30 Model of 1906," the 30-06 was developed at Springfield Armory for the 1903 Springfield rifle. The original 1903 cartridge, though very similar, used a round-nosed 220-grain bullet; the 1906 version used a 150-grain spitzer bullet with a slightly shorter case neck and case length of 2.494-inches. The 30-06, in Springfield, 1917 Enfield, and M1 Garand rifles, remained America's service cartridge through the Korean War. It was the most powerful cartridge ever adopted by a major military, and over time became America's most popular hunting cartridge. Today there are many good choices, but the 30-06 remains extremely popular throughout the world, suited for most North American big game and equally effective for African plains game. The most common standard loads today feature: 150-grain bullet at 2910 feet per second; 165-grain bullet at 2800 fps; and 180-grain bullet at 2700 fps. Choices in both rifles and ammunition are almost limitless. — Craig Boddington
