I will be using the grand ole 30/06 this year. As far as the argument between the 2 cartridges I really have no dog in this fight. I never did warm up to the 300 magnums or anything in between the 06 and 375 H&H. I just don't see the point, for me, if I'm going to deal with more recoil why jack around with anything less than a 338 WM or 375 H&H. FWIW I don't practice at what most consider long range but if I did I would go with a big 7mm.

JOC was right. The 270 Winchester on a Model 70 is a great combination as is the 30/06 and 375 H&H
