[QUOTE="JOHNNIE WALKER, post: 1244183, member: 67011"] If you really want a real American do-all rifle, grab a savage in 30/06. Varmints to elk is a pretty big range to cover. But the 30/06 fits the bill. It's affordable to shoot, enough for elk, and plenty for everything else. No shortage of load data. Plenty of factory options. All in all great cartridge. I have a 260 rem and love it. But I've used it on plenty of critters, and don't feel it's an elk rifle. I'm sure it would do the job, but wouldn't be my choice if I had options. But I've used my 30/06 on everything from crows to elk. It's killed a lot of stuf. My dad bought it for me when I was 14 for our first elk hunt. I've had it a good long time now, and it still works just fine. There's a reason that cartridge has been around this long. [/QUOTE]
