    Low recoil for bigger game

    Im a huger fan of the 7mm rem mag. It has the power for big game but also can be used down to coues deer with lighter loads. It has great balistics and rifles are readily available. Ammo can be a little hard to find right now for specific loads but it is getting better. It allows you more...

    Question about cartridge condition

    I would clean them just so the corrosion doesnt get in your gun but in terms of being unsafe you should be fine, the only worry is if you have a good primer strike and it doesnt go off that some moisture could be slowing down the burn and it could go off after a delay but that is a very slim chance.

    First and Last Rifle - New Hunter

    30.06 wont be too much but I would look into 7mm Rem Mag. Its comparable to a 30.06 but has better down range accuracy and more power. Lighter loads work great for whitetail and you can get heavier loads that are great for elk put to 400 yards. I believe the Vanguard is offered in it.
