When you.have time, put up a pic or two of that 308. Super cool rifles.

I will.

Lordy… this would have paired so nicely with my RSM…

I thought I was done buying another .30-06, now I need to go find one of these for myself

Fortunately you're not limited to 30-06. You can also find the Express models in 25-06, 270 Win, 7mm Rem Mag, 300 Win Mag & 338 Win Mag. Unfortunately there's no guarantee on how difficult or frustrating that search will be.

I will.

I put the African 35 Whelen with my RSM. The wood on the RSM is far and away better, but they look good together. They'll look really good in the bush..

Forgive my ignorance, but it this basically the forerunner to the African Hawkeye? I've seen so many of us longing for another run of 30-06's.

Not really. The Hawkeyes are low budget guns compared to the RSE M77s.

I have one in 30-06 too, although OP’s stock is a much better cut of Cicisrian wood than mine. Most RSEs are CRF too.

If you want to take an ‘06 to Africa, zero-ed with 220grn ammo (ala Ernest Hemingway), this is the rifle you want. It just exudes that classy ‘African rifle’ look.
