Hello, Sport. I believe that you've been given sage advice by others and will add only this: Having killed many deer with a 6mm Remington and a 75 gr HP, I know it works, but only when taking broadside or neck shots, in my experience. The heavier rounds like the .30-06 will allow you more lattitude in shots you can take as it penetrates more. For that reason alone, I now hunt Texas Whitetail with a .30-06. Best and good hunting.
