I have used a Remington Model 742 semi auto in .30-06 to hunt moose and deer for 40 years. I have finally had more than enough jamming issues...I prefer the semi-auto action as we hunt semi thick/thick bush and running deer/moose are common at ranges of 50 yards to 100 yards, however we go northwest in Ontario occassionally to hunt moose and can get shots to 300 yards +. I am hoping to get recommendations for shells to shoot deer and moose with.... I had great success with the .30-06 in 180 grain Remington A Frame s for moose and deer. Remington has a 160 grain in A Frame & I am leaning towards that. Any opinions/recommendations are most welcome. Thx Al <!-- / message --> <!-- controls -->

I guess that I feel semi-auto action should be left to shotguns and varmit rifles. I like the more simple rifle with a bolt or single shot. The less moving parts, the less trouble. That is only my opinion.
