Default RE: 30-06 Jack of all trades, Master of None.

Thats exactly what a 30-06 is "Jack of all trades" and a master of it...
So I've got a question,if you are Elk hunting with your .338 (master of elk)and you see a "Buck of your Dreams" does that mean your going to let it walk away cause you don't have your master deer rifle thats chambered for the .270?
Yeah I'm a 30-06 fan..
But for me its not that I'm a one gun hunter, the fact is many of the big game species I hunt, over lap
open seasons....
If I'm hunting August and Septfor I often find myself with big bucks, elk, sheep all in the same area
all are open to hunting....
Everything depends on shot placement and bullet choiceand min caliber selection...
The 30-06 has it all,even cal selection is well above the minimum suggested for big game species hunted in North America..
