American Rifleman's Christopher Olsen takes a look at the Compass rifle from Thompson/Center. Chambered in .30-'06 Sprg., the T/C Compass provides a soft-shooting platform despite its brawny chambering. For more on this fine bolt-gun, check out this "Rifleman Review" segment from a recent episode of American Rifleman TV.
