[QUOTE="Kennibear, post: 944695, member: 51650"] I just bought two boxes of 30 cal 210 VLD's about $0.53 .a bullet. Premium 30/06 ammo that you would use @ 600yrds costs about $40/20 or $2/ round. Not seeing handloading as an option. All my USA made (read: old) Weavers have worked through thick and thin especially the Micro-Trac ones. All new Weavers are foreign made. The high end have Micro-Trac and dual opposing counter springs on the adjustments. But they cost the same as USA made Leupolds. So I buy Leupold. You really need a barrel at least 26" long to get the most from your 30/06. Shorter leaves too many fps on the table. 10lb rifles are still portable and with a good barrel and handloads will get you well beyond 600yrds. KB [/QUOTE]
