[QUOTE="StumpGrinder, post: 2127855, member: 114832"] 30-06 is a great choice. Ammo can usually be found anywhere, and there are a wide range of bullet choices. For the reloader you can go from 100 grain plinkers to 220 grain game king. And with the heavy for caliber craze there are probably eldx options. It has good range capabilities and terminal performance. It has a little more recoil than the 308 which is why I switched, however my first deer rifle was a Remington 700 BDL in 30-06 and with handloads I could drive nails at 100 yards. And that is not a metaphor! I took a deer with it at 500 yards. I sold it to a friend who still has it when I switched to 308. If I could have only one rifle it would be 30-06 or 308. If your Weatherby is of the Vanguard variety it is a Howa 1500 and they are very well built and accurate. [/QUOTE]
