[QUOTE="thunderstick1, post: 442024, member: 28124"] I have no knowledge of reloading and very little about ballistics; only what I read. But, I do have knowledge of being 60. I used to shoot a 30-06 bolt but decided I didn't want to shoot such a cannon so I downsized to a Remington 7 SS 260 and I love it. It's light, has little recoil and gets the job done. Of course the only things around here big enough to shoot are whitetails and black bears, no mulies or grizzlies. The 260 might be a tad light for western hunting. We don't often have to take long shots here in upstate NY. I also bought a Browning 7/08, also a lightweight rifle and perhaps better suited for your neck of the woods. Just my .02 from an old fart with a bad heart. The 260 and 7/08 are much more fun to shoot than the 06. [/QUOTE]
