[QUOTE="COBrad, post: 839405, member: 1940"] If you're not going to reload, '06. As was stated earlier, another great caliber to consider is the 7 mag. Ammo is just as available as the '06, and your range potential is higher with higher BC bullets going faster. I would think hard about stepping up to the .300. Recoil will be significantly greater, and it sounds like over kill for the use described. If you're having a custom built, you may well want to take up reloading. You can tailor your loads to wring all the performance and accuracy out of your rifle. I started reloading 38 years ago as a teenager because it was so much cheaper. [/QUOTE]
