[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 2128105, member: 26227"] R-Dog, if not one else has said it, "Welcome to the site". I will everyone else will help you in any way we can. I like Berger bullets and Barnes Bullets. never under estimate Nosler or Swift either. I have no experience with Hammer or Cutting Edge are not known to me due to me never using them. the 30-06 is a good hunting round. lots of loads, lots of loading data and if you went with the 1:8" twist over the 1:10" twist you can shoot very effectively the 180 to 230 grain slugs. Hunting Elk or Deer; it's all fun until the cutting starts then it's a bit more like work. 😅 I am proud that you are getting into hunting at your age. it's good to see more people getting out afield no matter the age. best advice I can give you is find what your gun likes: bullet, case, powder, primer, Collective Overall length of cartridge/ set back from the lands and grooves, and make sure you have a good length of pull for you on the stock. LOP on the stock will make it much more comfortable to shoot and it will make you more comfortable wait on the best shot possible. have a great one. [/QUOTE]
