[QUOTE="Joel7891, post: 1554068, member: 102914"] G day rooboy82, I'm in exactly the same boat looking at a sambar hunt in September and also have a rem 700 in 30-06 bell and Carlson sporter stock and nightforce attacr 5-25X56 currently running 168 eld M and have had great success on pigs and tahr on recent hunt in nz out to 500 M.. Iv decided to step upto the 178 ELD M to alow me to reach out to 700M and still put 1000ft pound into a sambar.. ( which at the moment is where my skills are at ) if you look up Nathan foster terminal ballistic research he has a **** load of cartridge performance and projectile performance at long ranges as well as 5 series of books on All things long range related very helpful and no BS.. I'd say stick with the 06 for now and chuck some new glass that allows you to reach out if needed... also practice practice practice and some more mate Before reaching out at distance Good luck [/QUOTE]
