Ok in reading the Big Game Thread there are way more votes for 30-06 than 308.. I just don't understand the obsession with the 06 and it's neckedown compadres... Yes they are great ballistacally and served well in both wars.. But the millatary switched to the 308.. What was the basis for the switch?. Personally I like the short action of the 308, 7mm-08, 260 and 243. Just curious on why you like the 06...
