Good job Sam on your components for your build. With two .308's, I don't think adding a 30-06 would really expand your collection. You could consider a 300 PRC (Wyatt's has a 300 PRC extended mag kit that works great with either a BDL or DBM system). This caliber will give you a 'wow! what power' rifle to your collection.And as far as build gos I will be changing stocks for hs and using wyatt extended box and hinge floor plate or wyatt dbm and have action trued and bedded and trigger tech trigger or timney and if funds allow me to change caliber I will probably do a badger recoil lug and a #5 or #6 fluted barrel threaded either hart or bartlin or Krieger any of them in 5r finished 25 inches with brake may consider a remaged as well
I see your from N. Carolina, and if deer is your main wild game, I would go to a 6.5 Creedmoor. Lots of bullets and ammo are available for this newbie.
