Huh, my only 30-06 now is the first gun I bought myself.. an 03A3 I bought when I was 16 for $60 from a sporting goods store.

That is one of the worries I have is ending up with a deer missing its chest. I have been shooting the .300WM since I was 12 and can put a round into a 1 inch area around the bullseye at 200 yards so I have gotten quite comfortable with it but also with the .308.
Just added .30-06 to the poll.

Oh, same Barnes TTSX out of a 30-06 at near 3000 fps is just as devastating. Zeroed my buddy's Savage 30-06 with a load using a 150gr TTSX and he damn near decapitated a 2 point with a neck shot.
I know a lot of guys like those mono metals at warp speed, but have also seen some absolute carnage when using those bullets. Give me a good controlled expansion bullet like the Nosler partition, any day over those please...
I did another poll and it only won by 6 votes.Just think what the poll would look like if you would have had this cartridge in the list initially...... I'll bet it would annihilate the competition....
