[QUOTE="kcebcj, post: 691080, member: 10391"] If you just want to kill stuff out to 400 yards with a 06 the Hornady 150-165gr Spirepoint is deadly. Have taken more deer and elk with those two bullets than all the rest put together. But now if you want to shoot the 06 to its max for mule deer and elk I strongly recommend the Berger 190gr or the Accubond 200gr You can get 2700fps or better using RE17 and the Accubond quite easily and that will put a bull down out to 700 yards with a well placed hit. Took a 5 point bull at 465 yards two seasons ago with the 200gr Accubond and a good 6 point bull at 300 yards three years ago with the 150gr Spirepoint. Neither went over 10 feet. These are the only bullets I'm really familiar with and can recommend with confidence. [/QUOTE]
