Been fishing forever, but really have never shot a game animal. I've plinked away at ground squirrels with the old Ruger 22, but nothing more. I'm wanting to hunt for mule deer this year. I live in Central Oregon. I need a decent rifle, powerful enough to maybe drop an elk someday. So, any recommendations on brand and caliber for weapon? I was leaning towards a 30.06. Something that is economic, dependable, and shoots straight.
Also, any OR hunters here that is familiar with the draw system out this way? I've tried interpreting the regulations, but its somewhat confusing.
