This was my first year hunting whitetail deer and I took my buck with a brand new 30-06 Savage 116FCSS with a Bushnell Legend 3x9x40 scope mounted on it. I was shooting 165 grain Federal Fusion and it seemed to do the job quite nicely!!!

That's a beautiful thing! Good luck!
I was grinning from ear to ear. Because of circumstances beyond my control, I've previously had to take a "close-enough-for-government-work" approach to sighting in. This year I didn't ,and I learned they're not kidding when they say the Savage 110/111 accuracy is excellent, especially given the cost of the rifle.

I use a Model 70 in 270WSM for most hunting. I often have a Cow Elk tag as well as my Mule Deer tag.

Deer or Antelope only, I like my Browning BBR in 25-06

Trophey Elk, Buffalo, black bearand other bigger game I use a Model 70 in 300WSM

And I have several 30-06 that I keep around for spares and back up rifles.
