    In Utah, a Town Digs Deep to Battle Prairie Dogs

    How crazy is this? I no more than wrote my previous post this morning, and then I find this story headlining fox news. FOX News - Top Stories - Environmental groups collecting millions from federal agencies they sue, studies show - Page 1 of 6 How's that hope and change working out?

    My Long Range Setup

    Sorry, should have mentioned that. I hunt mule deer and elk, I'd love to hunt sheep and moose if I can ever draw a dang tag! My rifle has the hogue over mould stock and came fully floated and pillar bedded. I had the action squared. I always thought the a-max was a target bullet? Maybe not...

    what can I do with a 30-06?

    I'd see how the gun shoots before doing a lot of mods...

I'd try working up a good load and see how well you can get it to shoot before you really...

    New Guy from Utah

    Hello all. Just found your forum as I was looking into "exotic" bullets. (Norma Oryx, Lapua Secnar, that kind of thing.) Anyway, I love hunting, I shoot a south Carolina model 70 (hence the name) 30-06. Not the greatest long range caliber, but with the right equipment, no the worst either...
