[QUOTE="4bycamper, post: 734506, member: 17128"] Nobody?? :D Good for you on the elk, moose, deer out to 400 yds. No Problem here. But this is Long Range Hunting. 1000 Yard shots are on the table. Your 30-06 with a 168 A Max is down to 1150 FPE by 700 yards. And down to 670 FPE at 1000. So you would probably want to call 600 yards the practical limit for your rifle. I shot 30-06 team rifle at 600 yards with 150 gr ammo. So I got a clue. Even my 7mm mag starts to fall off the table around 700 yards. My point is if I want to kill elk at 1000 yards I will need a 338 mag especially if there is any wind at all. lightbulb Happy shooting [/QUOTE]
