[QUOTE="ShootnMathews, post: 898689, member: 59915"] I know you said you want to stay wih a 3006 but I think you'll just get frustrated at the amount of windy youll have. I would recommend some sort of 6.5mm or 7mm. Much less wind drift and plenty of deer knockdown. 6.5-284 Norma or 7mm Rem Mag would be my choice. You can pick up a savage 111 LRH in either of those calibers for under $900. I got mine for $749 at cabelas a while back. At 100 yards it shoots near one hole. I have that Nikon scope and the only bad thing is it is 1/8" clicks which gives you less dialing range. On my 243 I can only dial to about 600 yards Picture is 3 shots out of my 6.5-284 savage 111LRH at 100 yards [/QUOTE]
