[QUOTE="RogueWatchmen, post: 531770, member: 35746"] I'll most likely use my 30-06 for what I've been using it for which is mostly hilly wooded area's w/o much open terrain. I've had pretty good luck with it so far, and it's an older rifle in all honesty. The barrel on it is short enough it looks more like a carbine and is a pump action. I've not seen many of those around either, but its a solid rifle for what I use it for. I think I read that the effective range on a .308 is about 800M, some said 1K and while I can get by with a lower powered scope I'd like to get as high an accuracy as possable. I have no illusions of becomeing a sniper or even a exceptional shooter, but if I'm going to fire long range I want to be grouped as well as possable. So it looks like people are leaning more towards the savage am I correct? Is the 10FP a solid model for someone starting out with or is there something I should research as well? [/QUOTE]
