I have to say,I've killed a lot of deer in my lifetime with different cartridges and I've seen a lot of deer killed with different cartridges,but everytime I have killed a deer with the 30-06 I have been impressed.The thing is magic.Over a 100yrs old and better today than when it was born.

As Bob Hagel would say"You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong."Good words of wisdom...............
