Don't overlook the .300 win mag. It has a lot of flexibility and can do things the .30-06 can't . . . but you need to handload to get the most out of it.drjoker wrote:BTW, thanks, guys, for helping me choose my next gun. I never even considered 30-06 but because of this poll, I looked up the ballistics of the 30-06 vs the .308 and .308 has much more drop per distance travelled and gets buffeted by the wind more than 30-06.

Re: What would be your only rifle?
I have been quite happy with the Savage 116 Trophy Hunter XP in .300 Win Mag. Way under your budget, but good enough for me.
