[QUOTE="SSgt G Cody, post: 2282739, member: 113303"] Friend, Long live the 30-06! The great Jack O'Connor loved the 270 Win., the '06's little brother (out to 600 yd.), but stated that at 1000 yd. he would choose the 30-06! In fact, over the past 50 years, more 1K competitions have been won by the '06 than any other caliber or load! If you are building a rifle for 1K shooting, I would use the Ackley 30 degree shoulder, slightly longer neck, use N560 powder (H414, 4340), mag primers, and long, sleek 200 gn. bullets. I know the 6.5 and 7 mm bullets are all the rage now, but they can't outperform the mighty 30 caliber! Good luck with your project!!! [/QUOTE]
