My father gave me hisWin. mod 70 30-06 spingfield last year, he usedit as a teen in Wyo.I made a dbl lung shot onan 11 pointer with a 165 grain rem. rnd on the buck while he was walking behind a doe at about 40 yds away. he took 4 or 5 more steps and fell over dead. dont think he knew he had been shot.
This year I shot a nice 4 pointer with my Rem. Mod.78 Sportsman with a 100 grain round, a single lung and liver shot. It ran 40 yards throughALOT of mountain laurel and 15 minuts later I found him.
The 30-06 isalittle heavier but alot less work once you shoot the animmal.
