Default Ballistically speaking.....

In another thread the issue of the 30-06 vs. the .308 was raised.
I am partial to the .308, but understand, that is just my personal preference!
I do have some experience with the 7MM-08, and I've seen large deer KO'ed with the 7MM-08 at well over 300 yards, and in most ballistic charts, I've noticed the 7MM-08 seems to have more "retained energy" when the .308 starts slowing down.
That is where this thread goes...
Does anyone have any "real world " experience that this statement is true?
If so, the 7MM-08 is just about the "perfect"cartridge for game through Mule Deer size.
