Rifle

I certainly agree that the 30-06 is the most popular rifle. I have used it for the past 10 yrs. Used a 308 before that sad to say it got stolen out of my truck, way back when. Any way I have killed elk the last 6 years believe me I feel like the luckiest person on earth accomplishing it. Scouting played a large roll in it. Longest shot I have taken is approximately 200 yard at a 5x4 I hit him on the joint of his front shoulder and the bullet went through his lungs killing him instantly never moved. The other five fell no more that 20 yards away I use nozler partition 180gr. and will never change, great gun and bullet combination. On the other side of the story the work starts. I highly recommend a good back frame don't go cheap, stay in good shape or the prescription drug company will own you for awhile. I'm done now, I just live for hunting and fishing
