Thanks guys,

Lot's of good information, definitely lots of good opinions. I live in East Texas. I have been looking though last Fall's Cabellas catalog at the .25-06 ammo selection (most of it is .85-115 grain and one company even makes a 120 grain. bullet.) Also noted that as caliber went up so did the grain weights. Somebody mentioned getting a scope w/ god eye relief. I've heard of it, can you give me some suggestions. What power of scope would you recommend for these types of hunting situations?

Thanks
