I don't have one of the elites but what I've read about them sounds good. You might want to check out this link and maybe post your question over there in addition to reading the posted info.

Keep us informed on how it goes.

I am sure the rifle will be just fine. As for the caliber, I like the 30-06 only because of the cartridge selection. Although the .308 is a great caliber as well. Good straight shooting, hard hitting, and hard to beat for deer and other game animals. Both would do you well, just a preference on my part for the 06.

Go to Graybeardoutdoors.com and there is a thread there strictly for CVA firearms. A lot of guys there shoot the Elite. Sounds like CVA may have done it right on this firearm.

Good luck and have fun!
