[QUOTE="Murph1951, post: 2176994, member: 115291"] 6.5 PRC??? Just what are you thinking? WHY? Find a good used (older) Remington 700 in a 30.06, I see so many beautiful 700s at gun shows. The 30.06 is powerful enough for anything and I mean anything in the lower 48 states. You can find good (nothing exotic) 180 grain bullets almost anywhere. I have used Core-Lokt all my life and never had a failure. For a scope I would purchase Vortex, Burris, or Sightron and you don't have to purchase top end. The mid-range prices will give you excellent service, ( My personal favorite is Sightron) Also as a note older 700s may have a Walker Trigger so remember your gun safety rules. I love the Walker trigger, it is smooth as a baby's butt! [/QUOTE]
