I have been looking for a 25.06 and was watching Buds for several weeks and trying to figure out which manufacturer / model that I wanted. I scrolled through the Marlin rifles one evening and I found this 30.06 version $100 cheaper than all the other Marlin models and it had an active "make an offer". This rifle was a $100 more the day before!! I read the description several times wondering what gives - nothing gives, it was new and other than it being a 30.06 and not a 25.06 I made an offer and it was excepted. I put a Redfield Revolution 3x9 scope on it and within 7 shots I had it dialed in at 100 yards. I have been going to the 200 yard range and I can get sub MOA 3 round groups with either Hornady American Whitetail ammo or Remington Corlokt both in 150g. I clean the rifle after every use and polished the bolt, but the only knock is the bolt is a little stiff and not very smooth. I am not complaining, I can't believe the accuracy of this rifle. The 30.06 kicks a little, but you can easily shoot a couple boxes out without any issues. 5 stars to Marlin & 5 stars to Buds.
