That seems like good advice, to buy it now but not necessarily start shooting it now. I have a remmy 700 .30-06 that I've stretched to 400 well, and I've shot gongs at 500 but not any groups. I don't want to alter that rifle though as it came from my grandpa. I did take a deer at 387 yards with that '06 and reached my "goal" of 400 yards with that rifle. Do you think it makes sense then to pick up the ultra mag, but try to stretch the .30-06 out to 600-700 in the next year? Again, I don't want to alter the 700 because it came from my grandpa. So I feel a little limited on what I can do to it.
