Hi:
I have been thinking about this for a while now and seem to be leaning toward the 30-06 in an Ackley Improved chambering. Cheap brass, longer barrel life etc. I was thinking about building it from a Savage Bolt Action, and I would like a long barrel. Anyone have any comments about the cartridge, barrel length (longest possible for maximum velocity), and its effectiveness to 1000 yards for targets.
Thanks
