Default what's a good group for a 30.06 @ 300 yards

I was wondering what other 30.06's shot for groups at 300 yards. I have never had the need to shoot over 100 yards locally where I hunt, but I have a trip coming up this fall out west. I've just shot the 06 for the first time at 300 and with federal's accubond 180 grain bullet, shot a decent group i think, off shooting sticks. I didn't compensate for the wind. I checked out federals website afterwards and saw in a 10mph wind @ 300 yards, that particular bullet drifts 8.3". I'm shooting a remington 700. Thanks for any answers.
