It's either a Savage model 40 or a 45. A model 40 won't have checkering and a model 45 will have checkering.
It's chambered in 30-06 Springfield and has nothing to do with the model, they only came in 30-30, 250, 300 and 30-06.
Yes you can shoot anything you want in it, the 30-06 came out long before that model was made.
