[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 135085, member: 8843"] the 30-06 with a 24-26" barrel is enought gun to push a 180gr class bullet out to 600yds easly. A few questions first. Does the gun shoot accuratly now? Are you wanting magnum recoil and blast? What kind of critters are you planning to hunt at 600yds? Do you reload ? My longest kill on a deer is 618yds and that was with a 308 and a factory loaded 175gr Sierra Match King bullet. Check your gun out , have it bedded , the trigger worked and the crown recut generaly these three things will cut your groups a good bit and turn an ok shoot gun into a respectible rig. If it'll shoot 1 moa consistanly then it'll make a fine 600yd deer gun. Get yourself some 178gr A-max bullets and a pound of 4350 powder and start working up loads. that bullet with that powder should get you at least 2700 fps more than likely 2800 fps and that bullet will shoot pretty flat.
