If you're set on the .30,For versatility sake why not go with a 300 ultramag? Especially if one touts the "wide range of bullet weigth" card, You can load to 308, '06 or 300 win mag ballistics and way beyond when the time comes.

FWIW, I shoot 168gr bullets but from a 7mm.

Long range shooting rules. 14 pound 30-06. Been shooting 30-06 for 45 years.
Delet - was your rifle shooting good in the first place??
From my files, scope came loose, second cross hairs broke or came loose, last windage adjustments quit working. None where cheap scopes.
Current scope is Busnell. I don't believe you have to pay 2000 bucks for a good scope. Unless you need to stroke your ego.
