[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1215698, member: 7999"] I am a bit of a conflicted individual so my opinion is always a bit different. I am the guy that will tell you that a good 30-06 will do anything you need. On the other hand really fast rifles are really fun to shoot. With that said I think all the advice you have been given is sound. If you want to shoot a hot rod and understand what it is, go for it. Higher muzzle vel with the same bullet will do a better job at extended ranges. No two ways around it. Yes the hot rod will more than likely not last as long. It sounds like you have at least one other rifle to shoot with. So you do not have to burn up the hot rod. Shot as a big game rifle it will last many many years. Our company is one of those that do full custom ammo. For that matter we can help you find the rifle that you want, set it up, and ship it to you with ammo. Let me know if we can help you in any way.
