I am new to rifle hunting coming from a traditional bowhunting background.
I have a brand new Remington 700 cdl in 30-06 caliber.
I know about shooting the round that your rifle likes best and all of that, but what I guess I am looking for is what factory round (or load) is best so as not to destroy a lot of meat on the animal?
I would like to understand more about how the bullet works, grain size and power behind it as well as accuracy and penetration.
I would like something with some knock down power but that also won't blow apart the whole shoulder or neck with a misplaced shot?
I am currently considering 150 and/or 165 Remington core lokt (among others)
Thank you all in advance
