Maybe this is or isn't a con but it takes the 30.06 about 20% or more powder to do only about 5% more performance wise, of what a .308 does. I hope I worded that right. I don't think that people are necessarily going away from the 30.06, I just think that there are new flavors of guns to try now days and people are giving some of them to go. But I think that most are finding that the 30.06 kills them just as dead as the new fandangled stuff does.

Death is easily arranged,as is performance that smokes the '06.

Is this a desperate cry for attention?

It's versatile...but plain vanilla.

3) Define "appropriate" rifle types,in which the '06 has any advantage you perceive.


Let me guess here. A 7mm-08 with 140gr moly coated X bullet with RL19?
