2 Rifles for everything

22 250 338 remington ultra mag

Keep your 30.06 for anything from antelope to moose and get a .22, .223, or .243 for smaller game.  Despite their size, moose are pansies compared to elk so your 30.06 would handle a moose with ease.

If I had to sell my 06' and buy two rifles to replace it... and could not have any other rifles... Id get one of the 6.5's (too many to list) and a big 300 or 338 mag...

moose are pansies? lmao... thats why they just stand there and go about their normal business as you proceed to add metal alloys to their system...

Sure... they die... but so do elk if you hit them in the same spot.

I really like my 280's and 7mm mag.

Compared to elk, yes.  Absolutely.

Keep the 06 and get a nice .243. With those two rifles you can load from 55gr. To 230gr.

.06 or 7mm Rem mag, and .243 would be my choices.

[Jim the Plumber]

5.56 and your 30-06 or a 300 Win mag.

[superdown]

.243win and .325wsm

[headshot5]

5.56 and your 30-06 or a 300 Win mag.

 

[257 Wby Mag]

243 and a 338 of any flavor....

[huntnphool]

.22 and 7mm

Thanks for all the replies, guys. Maybe I will hang onto the 06 and maybe get something lighter too. I do have a 10/22 already, but it’s a plinker, as it’s the least reliable firearm I’ve ever owned.

 Least reliable?

 If you are keeping the 06, you might consider the 7mm-08 too Mags.
