Exactly. The equipment is the key. You would have a hard time with the average deer rifle hitting accurately at 1000 yds plus. It will certainly travel that far, but not accurately.
A 30-06 with a 0moa base and a v plex reticle would get WHOOPED by a 308 with a 20 moa base and a christams tree reticle.

After WWII and until the late 70's I think it was, the 30-06 was the darling of the Camp Perry 1000 yard matches. I think it still carries the record of most wins, but I'm subject to be corrected on that.
They both use the same bullet, and the 06 has a slightly higher velocity.

I was continuing the anology of a hunting rifle vs a target rifle at extended ranges

I shot my Aero M5 900 yards down at fouled bore. Ignore my idiot friend but it was probably the coldest day of the year last year and he couldn’t get over how stupid his ski mask looked [emoji23]

What's with all the stuff hanging off the forearm on a long range firearm?
