[QUOTE="Paul Wyatt, post: 56381, member: 2924"] Greenhorn, you mentioned that you wanted to stay with the 30-06 because you don't want to destroy too much meat. The bullet selection will determine that more than anything else. A 150 grain slug designed for a 30-30 that is used in a magnum will most likely leave holes you can walk through. In my experience a well constructed 180+ grain bullet in a 300 mag will not destroy any more meat than a 150 grain slug shot in a 30-06 [/QUOTE]
