Good cartridge!
I don't think people will ever agree on the best cartridge. Nature of the beast, I guess. I have a .308 and an /06. Love 'em both, though my yougest son has latched onto the .308. It has an 18.5" barrel, while my /06 has a 24". The way I can load the /06, there is 400 fps difference in the velocity with most bullets. All it seems to mean for woods hunting here in PA is I have to use heavier bullets in the /06 than the bullets that will perform well in the .308. If a person does more field hunting and taking shots over 200 yards, then maybe the .270s and 7 mags have a bit of an edge. Can't see it for shots up to 150 or so.
