[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 7014, member: 8947"] Kentucky, it depends so much on the type of hunter he is. If willing to pass up heavy quartering shots adn look for the broadside, he can get by with "reg." bullets. If he wants to take "any" shot possible, then look at the Barnes/failsafe type of bullets. 165gr in these bullet should be enough. With the lower vel of the '06, many of the newer bullets like the Interbond will work very well (165 or 180gr bullets is right) too. Of course, the partition is a given. Discuss with the guides the types of range likely to be encountered. My guess is that they will not encourage long pokes and would anticipate 350yds as max. Although a big fan of the SST, I would go with the interbond with this type of game. I can see Ian smiling already. Jerry [/QUOTE]
