The 30-06 is a great round, popular, easy to find ammo, semi flat shooting, wide selection of ammo, however it has a healthy kick to it.

What are your thoughts??


I think you need to spend a LOT of time perusing load data on EXBAL or the like not to mention the RANGE if you think there is any meaningful difference between 150gr loading in a 308 and a 30/06. Spend your money on a reloading outfit if you don't have one. If you do, buy some supplies and get to the range.
