Wow checked it out and darned if you learn something new everyday. I had never heard of a 7mm-06 but there it is. Internet is something else . It did say a 7mm-06 is a necked down 30-06 case to fit a 7mm bullet also said it is a .280 remmington. I do however if your looking for a decent deer animal sized rifle a 7mm-08 is a good round too.Low recoil and good killing power

the 280 rem or the 7mm-06 was also the 7mm express at one time.

7mm-06 was one of the best early wildcats, but now has been standardized as the .280 Remington. Is there a specific reason that you want the 7mm-06 wildcat instead of a rifle chambered for the commercial round?

Considering that the 30-06 isn't much more than the 7x57 Mauser necked up from .284 to .308, you could just buy a 7x57 and be done with it. Problem solved.
