[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 135062, member: 2011"] Your rifle is a good one to build on if you wish, so I wouldn't consider dumping it for a different cal. Additionally there is no reason a good shooting '06 with say 150s or 165 or so weights wouldn't be a good 600 yard deer rifle. Another cartridge, say the 6.5-06 might be flatter shooting but if the deer can't be hit with the 30 it can't be hit w/the 6.5 either. I'd strongly consider working up the load, working up the drop chart @ 100 yd steps out to 600 yds, then decide if she doesn't cut the mustard. Just a tho't [/QUOTE]
