[QUOTE="steelfingers, post: 3020271, member: 38658"] I grew up hunting with a 30-06 and 30-30. The .308 was new to me as is the 6.5. The 30-06 is a great gun and cal. I think it's great and I love it. Mine will beat you to death if you take it to the range thinking you're going to drop a bunch of brass but it's for hunting so just sighting in is about the extent of range time. I think the 30-06 has been all but forgotten and that's too bad. It's not cool anymore. It may not be cool but it should be. I think it's more versatile round. The Ballistics are solid and there's nothing quite like firing an old bolt action on a cold ass day deep in the woods. They were heavy and if you ran out of ammo you could beat the damn buck to death with the stock and not even crack it. [/QUOTE]
