6mm Rem. It is a great round fast, flat shooting with little recoil. About the only thing in North America I would not hunt with it is Elk, Moose & Grizzly anything else I would be fine.
I have always wanted a .280 Rem. I am over Magnum’s even though that’s what I own and hunt with.
The only 30-06 based that I have been around are 25-06 Rem, .270 Win and 30-06.
I don’t see the need for Bounties but I do see the need for Predator control ! States should allow anyone Resident or Nonresident to shoot them with out any extra cost in licensing. Just a Free Open season. I also think Spotlighting at night from January to August with a Rimfire to be legal...

I have not used it in any thing else just 12ga buying...
Everyone should have a pair and they serve two purposes they keep you from cutting your hand or your friends hand and especially when you are a long ways to a Hospital ! They also provide an unbelievable grip on animals skin as they are slicker than snot on a door knob when skinning.
Here is what I finished today a JC Higgins Model 30 .22LR refinish and repair. I used the Poly finish and sawdust a drop at a time to build it up where it was carved up. I am an Amateur at best.
