you can't go wrong with that round
weatherby makes a solid gun
ya you won't get big talk cause it's a vangaurd
but go out and shoot some diff. loads/manuf. and find what she likes to digest
and you'll have one hell of a gun
magnums are the crazy right now
but ask any old timer and they will tell you that there are few animals that won't fall from a 30-06
plus the ammo is everywhere
buy it you won't be sorry
i purchased a 30-06 win model 70 at walfart and love the gun
