My plan was to bow hunt the whole season but I'm not able to go as much as I'd like due to work. And I've got to have some meat. Buying steaks from the store is expensive. Many moons ago before I found an interest in bow hunting I used a rifle and had plenty of luck. Since then I sold that rifle (7mm) and am now considering purchasing a new one but having trouble deciding which caliber. I know it's about shot placement etc. I like the 3006. I've never had to shoot more than 50 yards. So I don't think I need something long range. I've been reading that the 243 is good for about 200 yards. I by no means am planning to have to shoot that far nor will I be in a situation to have to shoot that far. Any opinions for good conversation? I'm leaning towards the 06 or the 243
