Default STEVENS .30-06

I just purchased my first real rifle ( I have .22's but they dont count..lol), and I decided to go with kind of a budget rifle, as in Southern WI, you cant really hunt much more than coyotees with a rifle. I purchased a Stevens model 20030-06, put weaver mounts and rings, and will be topping it with a Bushnell Elite 3200 scope 3-9 x 40. Has anyone had any experiance with this gun?
reliablility?
accuracy?
ease of cleaning?
common problems?
ammo that works best?
just curious.... dont need advice on what I should have bought, I already have it in my gun safe, and am in love with the higher end Bushnell scopes, so there is no changing my mind there either.
Gun will be used for....Coyotee, feral cats(yeah I know its overkill),and the VERY occasional feral hog, all shots within 250 yards, and I dont claim to be a sniper with a rifle, I'm just hoping for 2 - 3" groups.
opinions??
thanks!!
