Availability, selection and cost of ammo leads one to conclude that .30-06 or .300 WinMag should be selected. If money is no object and prestige is important then .300 H&H should be selected.


A well set up fast .30 is simply an awesome hunting rifle. By any sane standard though, the 30-06 qualifies as a fast .30
If a guy wants or needs something faster than a 30-06, the .300 Winchester is an easy choice. This is somewhat offset by some of the very cool old rifles that predate the advent of the Winnie...

Note that many of these same cool rifles were chambered in the 30-06 as well...
It's a wonder that the .300 Winchester ever got off the ground after the body blow it took in 1964...
