Who is Ron Spomer
For 44 years I’ve had the good fortune to photograph and write about my passion - the outdoor life. Wild creatures and wild places have always stirred me - from the first flushing pheasant that frightened me out of my socks in grandpa’s cornfield to the last whitetail that dismissed me with a wag of its tail. In my attempts to connect with this natural wonder, to become an integral part of our ecosystem and capture a bit of its mystery, I’ve photographed, hiked, hunted, birded, and fished across much of this planet. I've seen the beauty that everyone should see, survived adventures that everyone should experience. I may not have climbed the highest mountains, canoed the wildest rivers, caught the largest fish or shot the biggest bucks, but I’ve tried. Perhaps you have, too. And that’s the essential thing. Being out there, an active participant in our outdoor world.

Ain’t many problems a man can’t fix with $500 and a .30-06. Yes, still very true even today!!!!

@wadepederson8457 Месяц назад

Yes,you can, such as trigger pull or trigger upgrade and stock bedding or stock replacement and bedding and a limbsaver for barrel harmonics and those that reload their ammo. These are some of the smaller attributes that can increase accuracy in a large way, even the bullet. Find the one your rifle likes. I hope this helps out. Have good hunting.

My late father suggested the 30-06 Springfield to me a long time ago! He said.. if you can't kill it with the aught six.. you shouldn't be hunting it! All he ever carried was his Winchester model 70 chambered in it ❤

@JAEUFM 4 дня назад

Blackie, my dad and I always have shot 30:06, because we thought, no matter what, even a small mom and pop store would have a couple boxes of some type on the shelf. Then the ammo shortage hit, could not find any 30:06 on the shelf. However, there were .308 everywhere. So, bought a Ruger American in .308. Wonderful rifle really. Now can find 30:06 again, so I switch between the '06 and .308 during deer season. No complaints for either rifle or cartridge.

@blackie1of4 3 дня назад

@@JAEUFM the 308 Winchester is the best modern day cartridge! Basically the short version of the 30-06.. and I experienced the same during the shortage. However.. the only cartridge on the shelf in my neck of the woods during the height of the pandemic was the 350 legend. However.. once ammo started trickling back.. 308 was by far everywhere! It's a NATO standard cartridge.. so they didn't have to change production lines in order to pump them out so to speak. I don't own a 30-06 anymore.. but I have a 308.. 350 legend.. 358 Winchester.. 35 Whelen.. 357 mag rifle.. and my favorite 7mm-08

@Tiredofcrap-hj7fb Месяц назад

Thank you, Ron. It's refreshing to see some good points made for the old .30-06 cartridge. The .30-06, at 118 years old, is still in the top 10 best selling rifle/cartridge combinations, delivers good, all-around performance out to 300 yards, is capable of harvesting any game on the North American continent, ammunition is ubiquitous, has looong barrel life, and new powders can send a 150gr bullet at velocities of 3,000fps. The old ought-six may be a little long in the tooth, but it still has a formidable bite.

@rickyanke9407 18 минут назад

I just bought one just out of spite for all the new cartridges they are trying to push on us. Buy more rifles in the traditional calibers and they have to keep making the ammo.

@troydrewniak4872 Месяц назад

Thought about the 6, 6.5, 7 08, 7, 270, 25 06, 308, Took over a year to decide, but eventually I decided 30 06. Sure its old but it is one of the most versatile cartridges ever made. Picked up a brand new Savage 110 in 30 06 2 years ago. Very happy with it, got my first white tail with it last November. Going for moose this fall.

@BiffTannen99 Месяц назад

thanks Ron for 30-06 week! I truly enjoyed the videos. I understand that a lot of folks shit on the 30-06 & don't believe in the old cartridges. That's ok but I know what, I'm teaching my youngsters to shoot & hunt with the old cartridges. Why? Because of the affordability & just because that's what been handed down for generations in my family. I'm sure all these new PRCs are more efficient and sell good to the young generation, but those of us that have been shooting with the old cartridges for generations, we simply just don't care about the new stuff because what we've been using has been working & don't feel the need to spend the extra $$$ on what the Internet says is the best. Keep up the good work Ron.

@csjrogerson2377 Месяц назад

I thoroughly agree. The modern, high BC bullets with magnum cases are very efficient, but they only come into their own at extreme ranges for their type or extreme hunting ranges. 95% of hunters are not capable of hunting to those ranges and the older cartridges still work well enough, so why not use them.

My dad's BAR in .300 win mag groups an average of 1.2". He loves it. Beautiful rifle!

@NunchucksHabit 8 часов назад

I was considering a BAR and the Benelli equivalent, both in 30-06, until I saw Ron do a full segment on those two auto loaders - and not only were they choking on all 3 different types of ammo, they were as inaccurate as anything I'd ever seen on RU-vid. Tight groups like that on a 300WM anything, let alone a semi-auto, is impressive. Do you have any advice or comments on Ron's experience with those two auto loaders? Is your dad's BAR a specific year? Like, was it made in Japan or the USA? Both of the leading auto loaders fouling every shot & cartridge eject like they did, seemed more than just coincidence. They were both out of the box, but that should mean they can keep a tight group @ 100yrds, right? I'm looking at the Sako S20 Hunter in 30-06, but if I can rely on a B.A.R. being super accurate, I'd rather get an auto loader than a bolt action. Ron's video was a real turn off for the semi-auto genre for me.

@philipwoiak3228 28 дней назад

Ron, I enjoy your videos. I know you are a western man . There's 2 rifles you didn't have in your 30-06 round up week. The 740 and 760 (7400 and 7600) I understand you can't get representative firearms of all models. My father shot a Remington 760 carbine in 30-06 for years, until I gifted him a model 4 in 30-06. (A gift for helping me with schooling after high school) My 7600 carbine is a 1" rifle with 180s. These rifles have served us well for years. Most of my cousins and uncles still use the 06 in these firearms. With some tuning, these rifles can do 1" groups. Mine does 1" at 100 yards with 180s,( I gifted my father's 760 to one of my twin sons. His model 4 will go to his twin after I take a whitetail with it. Don't get me wrong, I love my ruger bolts. I have M77 in 25-06, .338 and .300.

@johnl5974 Месяц назад

These videos are especially fun when you and a guest are bouncing info and ideas back and forth.

@24kachina Месяц назад

Notwithstanding all the more modern PRC and other heavy/long caliber cartridges that require a higher barrel twist rate, the .30-'06 remains the centerfire hunting rifle equivalent of a Toyota Camry or Honda Accord or an Ford F 150 truck. Versatile, reliable, affordable.

@benparry5318 Месяц назад

I would have liked to see a premium ammo like the Federal GMM 168gr used as an accuracy test. I think using the Remington 150gr FMJ didn't do any of the rifles any favours, but at the same time there are so many combinations and offerings that whittling them down to three test loads would be pretty difficult.

@larrywilliams2359 Месяц назад

Have many rifles in the WBY Vanguard aka 1500 action all have been good usually around 1 moa & priced right. 20yrs. Ago new price was about 400$ If I had to say something negative it would be that are a tad on the heavy side. In my opinion the WBY Vanguard or 1500 Howa is the best for the money ! This video affirmed this. Before the “ budget rifle” craze this was your Best Buy for a reliable hunting rifle and still is today !

@evanwindom Месяц назад

I have a Model 70 in '06, with a barrel tuner installed. The rifle is over 20 years old, and still shoots .6 MOA consistently. Lots of rifles shoot sub-MOA groups. The real benefit of the tuner, though, is that I can get tight groups with a wider range of loads. If I find one that the rifle "doesn't like", I can generally tune it in to a sub-MOA configuration.

@NunchucksHabit 8 часов назад

I've got a decision to make soon - going to get my first hunting rifle, and I'm looking at 30-06. I considered 308, 7mm, 6.5PRC and 300WM. My preferred cartridge was actually 6.5PRC, but if I'm going to get good, I'd rather not spend thrice as much on 6.5PRC ammo. Recoil of a 30-06 is about 21.5lbs. Recoil of a 6.5 PRC is about 17lbs. Recoil of a 7mm RemMag is about 23 lbs. Recoil of a 300 WM is about 30lbs. I initially wanted that BLR Lightweight '81 Takedown, but the wait list for those in Canada is basically a year. I then wanted a B.A.R., but the video Ron did with the BAR and the Benelli autoloaders turned me off on autoloaders - they were out of the box, but all they did was jam and miss, even with 3 different types of ammo. I then looked at Tikka, who seem to rule the bolt action class - but I heard on two different channels that the recoil on those was too strong. I'm prepared for recoil, otherwise why would I be looking at 30-06, but I'm referring to unnecessary recoil. So that brings me to the Sako S20 Hunter. It doesn't seem to do anything wrong. I haven't seen a single channel not sing its praises.

@crazytex23 Месяц назад

I obtained a 30-06 Ackley Improved from Lex Webernick on a Winchester pre-64 Model 70 action. I’m currently working on a load with the 190 gr Hornady CX. I’m getting 2850 fps at the muzzle with N560. At 5000 feet elevation that makes this load a 700 yd elk rifle. The old ‘06 isn’t far behind. I’d imagine that it could be a 550-600 yd elk rifle with the same setup. These are sweet cartridges.

@mikepetrilli4686 Месяц назад

Wish you tried a Tikka...i bet it would have put a lot of those rifles to shame.

@CliffordJessup 17 дней назад

Here in Canada the most popular rifle was the Remington pump with the detachable mag in 3006. This was the hunters moose rifle and is lethal with 180 grain bullets. It's easy to carry and and reliable at -40. which is something you can't say for a number of the rifles you showcased.

Loved seeing you devote a week to the good ol '06! My second rifle, bought my freshman year of high school, was a Remington 742 Woodsmaster in 30-06.

Tomorrow I go to pick up my "new to me" 30-06, a Winchester model 70 laminate, also my first Winchester rifle and I can't wait to get to the range Sunday afternoon.

The first one, I paid $800NIB but I paid $1450 for the second, ouch! However, the latest ones I’ve seen on GB are about $2K! As for me, make mine Winchester! Great comparison of 30-06’s. A great round that’s gonna be around while many others will fade away; I wouldn’t be surprised if the 30-06 isn’t still available at 200yrs of age!

@bullgravy6906 Месяц назад

Walked through a gunshow, spotted a Marlin bullseye…but on a bolt gun. Some cash down and I’ve got a Marlin MR7 in .30-06, love it but I baby it just a bit. It hunts out of cozy blinds. The Browning hells canyon speed of course in .30-06 goes out in the weather. Edit: best PCCs, but get broad with it! Marlin 1894s, Ruger PCCs, the ARs, there’s a lot of potential there. Deer hunt with a Ruger PCC 9mm? Believe it or not, I know a guy!

I’d like one in .358 Winchester And for the lightweight version, I like the Howa with the carbon stock, that’s a nice little mountain rifle , I’d like one in 7mm-08 Remington.

@troy9477 8 дней назад

I am something of a throwback (52 next month). Peogress peaked with the Rem 870 and the Holley 4 barrel, borh of ehich were perfected in the 1950's (I like Ike!). Everything else is just gilding the lily. I love wood and steel. There is something soul satisfying about my Garand, M1917, and my #1. I appreciate the advantages of synthetic stocks and cerakote or stainless for outdoors. And i am going to have to learn to appreciate copper bullets if i ever hunt here in Kalifornia. Now that i can afford an occasional gun again, i have decided on a 7mm-08 for my next rifle. I have 308's and want to try a 7mm-08. My short list is a upper level Vanguard, hopefully cerakoted, or an equivalent Howa, or the Tikka T3 Lite stainless. The price diffs aren't all that much, with Tikka being a little more. Glad to hear the BLR did well. I have liked them since i worked in s large gun shop from 93-95. Was always partial to the short actions, but i am open minded. There is very little you cannot do in the lower 48 with the -06, except maybe grizzly, and people even do that (it's your posterior, bub, but be careful). I should have vought one of the LH 700 Mountain Rifles with Kevlar stock that the shop had in stock and couldn't seem to sell. But finances wouldn't allow it. Was finishing college in 94 and taking LE training modules. Too bad, because that might have gotten me into hunting. My gf's father at the time went to CO for elk most years. Thought i might get a chance to go. But family commitments (sick mom), working 6 days a week after college, and job hunting for an LE job left me with little time. Would not have been feasible to take a week off to go hunting, even though we were theoretically supposed to be outdoorsmen. I was able to get some other good guns while working there, and i got familiar with high end optics, learned from people's hunting stories and handloading knowledge, and learned to mount and boresight scopes, so it was a good experience.

Awesome series. I have a lot.....13 to be exact...... of 30-06 rifles. Surprisingly my most accurate is a gen 1 savage axis that I pillar bedded in a boyds at one stock. My favorite is a 1960s model 700 bdl. But the most accurate rifle I own is a sig cross in 308. It's a do it all rifle for me in the lower 48 and I have a really hard time leaving the house without it. Consistent 1/2 moa with 130gr barnes ttsx ammo.

@TheWVgoodguy22 Месяц назад

Pretty sweet lineup that you guys have there. I definitely agree with the picks in each category. I have always wanted a lever action and I do like my 300 WSM even though it’s right handed and I am a left handed shooter. I have been tempted by the thought of selling it and getting the BLR in the same cartridge

30-06 = Better ammo prices, much wider availability, Perfectly functional under 500 yards. I like some of these new cartridges, but I can't say that I actually need them. And I can still hit thousand yard targets or more with it if I have to. If you'rejust plinking, they will still hit at a mile. Drop calculations are kind of fun at that distance though.

I am loading a Speer 165 grain bullet, BC of .52, that i measured at 3015 fps average. I am using a rem 700, with a Shilen 25.5 inch match barrel, Timney trigger, and Boyd's light thumb-hole stock. The only problem is Finding the powders I like. I have had this gun from original since the early 80's and this is its 3rd barrel. I have given my kids all 30-06's in different rifles, such as Browning A-Bolts, Savage 110's, and Thomson Center. The TC and A-bolts are very accurate and they have taken elk with them already. I gave my 12 year grand daughters the same and the are older now and have no problem shooting and using them. If they decide on a larger caliber for dangerous game, they can go up to 338 win mag. My load is capable of taking elk to 750 yards, deer out to 1050. and I do practice out to 800 yards and shorter. Love the show but a budget rifle like the Browning a bolt or a Ruger Hawk-eye Hunter would have been nice to see in the mix.

One of the most accurate rifles I have is my Dads old Remington model 721 in 30.06 made in 1958. The metal butt plate is a little uncomfortable if it's held loose but still a fantastic unit for sure.

The Mossburg seems to me to be the winner. 1.5 moa with anything you feed it and costs under 500 bucks. What is not to love about that?

Hello Mr Ron Spomer I hope you are well I am a fan of your videos Thank you for the practical and technical tips that you upload to your channel The Mozin Nagant has been widely compared to other hunting rifles If possible, please post a video on the channel comparing the 7.62x54r caliber with other hunting calibers. We would like to hear this comparison from you Thank you

@chuckkulick8635 Месяц назад

Great video guys and a lot of work I see gee I wonder if you did the series again with select handloads maybe some pet loads would be nice for us reloaded because you probably with reloads could get that sub moa groups

Poncho Villa didn’t need no stinking carbon, neither did the pirates of the Caribbean. Wood baby, baby it if you wish but use it or lose it. Dangs and scratches are character and history tellers. Synthetic just polluted the ocean permanently!

Good job covering different types while still narrowing it down to 12. This could have easily been 120 good rifles in 30-06.

Ron, Thanks for a great week of 3006 performance. Hows the shoulder? Howa 1500 rifles were given a bad rap back in the 1990's . I bought my first one back then .It was a barreled action in 223 I put on a Ramlite wood grain synthetic stock. Its one of my most accurate rifles . Since then I have bought a 3006 and a 7mmMag all are great shooters.

GOOD SHOW guys! Very interesting. As a Benelli R1 owned I could cry to see the groupings not going well, but this can be corrected with methodical load research. No one-shots in the groups. Ruger No 1s should have been there. Cheers!

We tried getting a No. 1 Ruger. No luck.

If you're giving them away, I'll take the Browning BAR. I don't shoot at game farther than 250 to 300 yards, so it's accurate enough. In the bolt action, I'd take the new Winchester Model 70 with a 24 inch barrel. That Browning BLR, because it's a takedown, would be my third choice. The Howa 1500 have always been a 1 inch to 1.5 inch rifle out of the box would be my all around pick of that group.

Single Episode suggestion: run the original .30-'06 semi auto, the M1 Garand, through the same testing. Even money even with irons it meets or beats (or comes close to) the modern Browning and Beretta.

I'm an old shooter/owner, I've had a Win Mod 70 back in the late '70 early '80. it was unfortunately stolen in the early '80s but i didn't know that 'tii mid '80 since I was in Europe and didn't return to where it was supposed to be stored until late"80s when i got my stuff out of storage. I know that the storage didn't steal it since i was sent the key for the lock. I do own 3 in this caliber, the oldest is by when i bought it. first one is a Savage 110E (which surprised me that none of them made onto your list), the second was also a Savage 110 but a left handed model ( I shoot left-handed), the last is actually the oldest, an M1 Garand build date July 1944.

@24kachina Месяц назад

Respectfully, Ron choosing the Mossberg over the Howa for a budget level is a high crime and misdemeanor. Cannot agree with that. OOOPS. Mea culpa. Ron is granted a full pardon for recognizing the Howa 1500 as the best overall value and performer.

Good show. I would have liked to see some straight pulls and single shots.

I've got a Remington featherweight, and it is not easy on the shoulder. It is a nice rifle to carry around while hunting, but I wouldn't want to shoot more than about 5 rounds at a time.

Any rifle testing needs to include Barnes Vortx ammo and Even Hornady Outfitter.

Hey Ron, this may sound like a useless statement, but when you were holding the Howa rifle in certain positions against your chest, the camo stock disappeared in the break up camo. Lol

@G19Jeeper Месяц назад

Little disappointed you guys left out a Tikka T3X or JP Sauer 100 Classic XT. Both are great budget rifles. Both of mine shoot phenomenal

That BACO semi auto had some major operating issues. Surprised you didn’t show a newer model 70, that BACO now makes. I’m not a huge fan of the Browning, for obvious reasons. A brand new rifle, should not have issues right out of the box. I’d be sending that one back!!! Good info though Ron. Thanks for sharing with us!! I also appreciate your friend on this episode. Unlike your other friend that claimed he can put 10 shots into an inch with his 1903 Springfield with irons. Keep it honest, and I’ll appreciate it.
