[QUOTE="112Savage, post: 866975, member: 38801"] Hello all, I've lucked into a 1970 Winchester Model 70 target with the marksman stock chambered in 30-06 (26" barrel). I'm wanting to use this gun a long range target/ hunting rifle. My initial thought was: 208 grain Amax Reloader 17 or H4350 Winchester Brass or 190 berger hunting VLD H4350 winchester brass. The rifle will be used as 95% target 5% hunting. Will the Amax be too heavy to see advantages above the 175-190 berger hunting VLD? My target velocity would be around 2700 I think. I notice German Salazar really doesn't go much above 200 grains; but he is shooting iron sights and is concerned with recoil. share with me your experiences shooting the 30-06 beyond 500yds [/QUOTE]
