[QUOTE="Caveman0101, post: 1616710, member: 10852"] With the '06 you have to pay really close attention to the velocity with any given bullet at range. There are some bullets with listed required FPS that will limit you to inside 400 yard shots, while different ones would allow you to stretch the '06 to beyond 600 yards. Just be mindful, know what your bullet requires and how that should limit your range for taking game. I believe this is why magnums are the way to go if you really want a long-range 30 cal. hunting rifle. If recoil is a concern give something in the .28 caliber a look. There are many non-magnums in this caliber that can be trusted to take any North American game out to 800 yards + [/QUOTE]
