THE 06, IN MY EYES IS THE MOST ALL AROUND GUN. IT IS GOOD ENOUGH TO SHOOT ELK, DEER, BEAR, AND ITS KILLED MOOSE EVEN. THE KEY IS SHOT PLACEMENT!

get a 7mm rem <u>mag</u>. That is the best all around gun. Shoots flatter then the 06 and has more power. Plus it's perfect for bear, and will work fine for deer. but your 06 will get the job done for both deer and bear.

If all you are going to hunt is bear & deer, stick with the 30-06. But if you are aching to get a new gun consider a magnum for long shooting, but if your hunting close quarters consider a lever action 45-70, 30-30, 450 marlin.
