I picked up a Bergara 30-06 last year with figured walnut, it's a beauty.

Anybody a fan of the (extremely uncomfortably named) Mannlicher stock? I've always been a fan of that old timey retro look when the wood is nice.

Most accurate is maybe a Savage, but no pretty wood. I’d guess Weatherby still puts pretty wood a few models and pretty sure they are still guaranteed to be MOA. I forget which Browning Abolt model has the pretty wood, saw one at Carter County in Houston a few years back that was to pretty to hunt with.
Model 70 or REM 700 in custom wood is nothing to sneeze at, but custom wood is expensive.
Thanks, Billy

I don't know who made this, but this is going to be my next build. It was love at first sight. And yeah, the old fashioned wood grains are becoming more and more collector stuff, IMO. Seems the big black scary guns are all the rage. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2023/07/full-61315-190050-tumblr_l_7905336465108.jpg)

For prettiest rifle, for a base model, id go Winchester Model 70. I'd also say the Kimber 84M in walnut.
Most accurate Tikka, weatherby, kimber and probably several others now guarantee sub-moa.

Cooper Firearms make some gorgeous rifles, but the price reflect their quality. https://cooperfirearms.com/pages/mannlicher

Prettiest and most accurate, while being a .270 or .30/06 kinda limits brands. Weatherby doesn’t have normal rounds, all are their own loads. I like the looks of the Nosler rifles (synthetic stocks though), but their rounds aren’t normal either.
