20 rounds off the bench with the 30-06 does it for me for a days shooting. I can do more than that offhand but less prone. The farthest I've ever had to shoot to take a deer was right around 300 and thats the only time I've had to shoot beyond 200 except in my pronghorn hunting. 90 some % of my shots have been inside of 150 and you just don't need to buy a .223 and fire hundreds of rounds a week to be able to make those shots. I do shoot beyond 300 yards but that is on groundhogs and mostly with the 270 Winchester. People in more open parts of the country have different needs.
