Default 1940 winchester mdl 70

Hi everyone, i am new to the forum and i have a question for everyone:
i am 22 years old and have been looking for a hunting rifle to use for deer and elk in washington. i found a 1940 winchester model 70, 30-06 and was wondering if you guys could give me some advice. the gun is in 98% perfect condition and the price tag is around $600. so, here are my questions: is 30-06 an appropiate size gun for what i will be hunting for? is $600 a good price for that gun? and should i be concerned with hunting with a 60 year old gun? any advice and insight that you could offer would be greatly appreciated! happy hunting!
