Default 338-06 = Perfect Cartridge ???

Thinking about that perfect deer cartridge, and got to thinking (there I go again [&:]) about the 338-06 (A-Square). Recently standardized, seems like this could be it.
Would make a great deer cartridge, and a good one for larger game such as elk & moose too. Good range of bullet weights available, and good sectional densities too.
Seems like it would be a good one for anything in NA, decent trajectories, and with moderate recoil as well. Now if we could just get the majors to make the rifles & ammo.
Opinions/thoughts???
