I have 2 Remington 30-06's. One is a 700 bolt action and the other is a 742 Woodsmaster semi-automatic.
I inherited both these guns from my grandfather. I'm fairly new to gun ownership and shooting. Is there a good reason for keeping 2 guns of the same caliber? Sure, one is a semi automatic, but are they different enough or have enough different applications to keep both?
I ask because I am considering selling the semi-automatic to outfit the bolt-action rifle. The bolt-action will be used mostly for target shooting and hunting. I can't think of what I'd use the semi-auto for that would be different from the bolt-action.
