I would get a box of 150gr and a box of 165gr of Federal Fusions. Fire a few groups and hunt with the one that shoots the best, though I'd bet it's the 165's.
Camp is where you make it.

I dont mind paying for quality but if i can get good 300yard performance with the cheaper loads ill do that as well. Ive thought about 165gr fusions but didnt know if they were a good choice for shooting over 200yards. That's a chip shot for an 06.

I load 150 accubonds in my 06 and 300 win mag. Kills deer pigs right fast.

Deer, Are a pretty soft target for a 30-06 class cartridge. All of the major brands of 150 - 180 gr C&C loadings are used by millions every year with good results. I lean more to the 150 gr. and 165. Actually you got two good answers 1 pick the one your rifle likes best,and 2 your first response I'd start with the federal blue box as they are usually low cost and very good. If your rifle doesn't like them I'd move to power points and core locts.
