[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 210619, member: 7999"] Would it fit in the long action of the 30-06 that I am using as the donor? I assumed that I needed to build a caliber that was of the same basic size as the 30-06. I was also figuring that the added velocity of the 6.5-06 with the right bullets would be good for elk. I guess I could also stay with the 30-06 and use reduced loads until we are ready for more. He is 12 years old by the way. Kids can't start hunting in MT until they are 12. Wish they could start earlier. Thanks again, Steve [/QUOTE]
