Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
Hector Naranjo pled guilty without the benefit of a plea agreement to illegal reentry after having been deported following a conviction for an aggravated felony, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a), (b)(2) (West 2000). The district court sentenced Nar-anjo to sixty-two months' imprisonment. Naranjo appeals, contending the district court imposed an unreasonable sentence in violation of United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005).
After Booker, a sentencing court is no longer bound by the sentencing range prescribed by the sentencing guidelines, which are now advisory. See United States v. Hughes, 401 F.3d 540, 546 (4th Cir.2005). In determining a sentence post-Booker, sentencing courts are required to calculate and consider the applicable guideline range as well as the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C.A. § 3553(a) (West 2000 & Supp. 2006). Id. We will affirm a post-Booker sentence if it falls within the statutorily prescribed range and is reasonable. Id. at 546-47. A sentence that falls within the correctly determined guideline range is presumptively reasonable. United States v. Green, 436 F.3d 449, 457 (4th Cir.2006), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 126 S.Ct. 2309, 164 L.Ed.2d 828 (2006).
Naranjo's sentence was within the properly calculated guideline range of 57 to 71 months' imprisonment and was well within the statutory maximum of twenty years' imprisonment. See 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b)(2) (West 2000). Because the district court appropriately treated the guidelines as advisory, and properly calculated and considered the guideline range and the relevant § 3553(a) factors, including those enumerated by counsel, we find the sentence reasonable. See United States v. Montes-Pineda, 445 F.3d 375, 377-79 (4th Cir. 2006), petition for cert, filed (U.S. July 21, 2006) (No. 06-5439).
Accordingly, we affirm the district court's judgment. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED.
We reject Naranjo's request to find that the presumption of reasonableness discussed in Green violates Booker, as one panel of the court may not overrule another panel. See Scotts Co. v. United Indus. Corp., 315 F.3d 264, 271-72 n. 2 (4th Cir.2002).
