I have my dad's 1973 Winchester Model 70. It is for my son. It is in 30-06. It has a Redfield Widefield 3-9x scope. I took it to the range today and shot a few Remington 125 grain PSP at 75 yards. I had read that the 30-06 had a real kick to it. Maybe with heavier weight bullets, but the Remington 125 grain PSP was not that big a kicker. My son ought do just fine.
I do not see a problem with the group for deer hunting, or coyote hunting for that matter, but then I'm not a deer hunter.
I've been reading threads where the question has centered on accuracy. Is beeter accuracy required for deer, or dog hunting ?
