Edgar 1 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Hello everyone I am considering buying a 30-06 for general purpose deer stalking. What does everyone think of this caliber? Has anyone ever owned one? Any help much appreciated. Quote Link to post
v-max 2 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Hi yes its a good round with plenty of versitality to homeload with it being a 30cal ie 308 in a long case. best check your local rfd for regularity of ammo etc but if you homeload the choice is endless. Quote Link to post
