I'm still using the Winchester Model 70A that my father gave to me after he moved to Cali and quit hunting. It's also in 30-06. While it isn't as light and modern as the one you pictured, it has attributes that I have only seen in custom guns recently. It'll also give me a three shot group I can cover with a 50 cent piece at 300 yds. The stock is beautiful walnut, and the bolt is jeweled. When I get home from work tomorrow morning, I'll snap a pic and post it.
After more than 30 years of being carried around in vehicles and on shoulders, it's still beautiful, and the action still locks up rock solid. Sentimental too. That's my vote for a great deer rifle.
