As I posted earlier, the 30-06 is my favorite but I feel I have to add an honorable mention to my new obsession. That is the 7.62x54r. I am liking this caliber more an more
I would agree 300 RUM is amazingI love 30 calibers of all kinds, hunted with them, used in competition, shot for fun for more than 50 years!
30-06 for versatility
300 RUM for sheer power and long range capability has become my all time favorite!
I remember reading in a reloading manual that the 30/06 is the yardstick that all other high powers are measured by. Other calibres have flatter trajectory, hit harder etc etc, but the 30/06 is the all-round calibre to many.30.06 is the obvious choice lol nothing wrong with the .300 mags but you can't have a discussion about .30 cals and not pick the .06
@rdogThe 30/06 hands, down good ammo availability, no bullshit belt, feeds well out of the magazine, 120grain to 220 grain bullets manageable recoil, avail in a large range of rifles. One of the great rifle cartridges.
