To many people are brain washed in todays society. It's a shame. You call your self a man. The men who hunted bears and african game with 30-30 and the 30-06 where men. You got so many candy arses in todays world who are afraid to hunt an animal with anything less than a a magnum or larger than a 30-06. I am sure if the 30-06 was the largest caliber made everyone would be saying that is more than enough gun for all wild animals.The generation are turning into brain washed babies on the type of gun you got to have to kill the biggest of big animals. Oh I would never hunt a griz with a 30-06 or 30-30. Well go have your momma change your diaper. I for one second would not hesitate to use a 30-30 or 30-06 on any wild animal alive. If you don't know where to hit them to kill them then stay the hell out of the mountains. Pansy arse kids today,This goes with quite a few adults all so. Got to have the magnums. Real men don't use magnums all the time for dangerous game. I would use any of these 2 rifles for the most dangerous game any where. I got confidence in my shots and know the power of these rifles. You can not go wrong with these rifles.You master the 30-06, you can shoot rings around the magnums.
Wow, you must be a mind reader, because I have been thinking that for a long time. Or at least since I have been a part of these forums and have read so many posts where people are constantly asking questions about whether they need a mag or not, or if a .270 is enough gun for Elk sized game. Man, a .270 is just a necked down .06 case with a flatter shooting bullet. Guys, the 30.06 was designed to kill much tougher game than Elk, deer or bear and that game was shooting back at them. [>:]
TUK, I hate to say it, but, most inexperienced hunters and shooters, will automatically go for the magnum rifle, before mastering lesser intensity cartridges, like the .270 and .30-06, I owned and shot a .308 for 20 years, before finally, moving up to the magnum, even though my dad bought me a M70 .300 Win Mag for my 16th birthday, I traded it for the .308. and all in all, was much happier, the .308, allowed me to enjoy shooting, and master the basic fundamentals, before moving up to the magnum, did I need to move up to the .300? absolutely not, but I love shooting and hunting, and wanted a new pet. I would never consider letting a new shooter purchase a magnum of any sort, I would prefer they get a .308, or the like, they will enjoy the whole shooting experience more, if they just go with what they can handle.
