    A "bad" rifle caliber/cartridge?

    Does that make the .270 a bad caliber? 30 T/C seem like it never took off the way it was expected to

    which scope?

    Thanks fellas, I did alot more research and have seen great reviews on the Bushnell Trophy. I'm gonna get it b/c the 2 power will be great for stalking and the the higher magnification for fine tuning on a bench.

    .30-06 recoil and scope

    Get a limbsaver recoil pad when you buy it for around $30 and it really helps the felt recoil. The 06' is nothing serious in recoil and not near a 12 gauge with magnum loads. If the biggest caliber you have shot was a .223 then the 06' will have a good kick compared to it but nothing some...

    223 for Doe.

    I started using 60gr. nosler partitions in my .223 and the bullet always held together and exited or was found in the hide still intact.
