Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles 30-06: Overstated versatility?

I'm guessing that one went by and didn't cut a hair.......

The ONLY reason it was soooooooo fhuqking HILARIOUS,is because she was doing her BEST. Hint.





Fhuqking LAUGHING!..............

Pardon the tardy response........



Merkel K4 Damaszener, 30-06 Springfield.





ya!

GWB

10 pages now to decide that 1) It WORKS 2) it works better than some. 3) it doesn't work as well as some....

Again.....

Although it's not quite the journey of apoplexy as the discussion over .007" +/-




When the Babes' record was broke was it REALLY broke???? I mean better balls, better bats, lights, mound hight, alcohol, PEDrugs, training.......................

You must have bumped your head when you fell off the teeter totter. You did mention the 6.5 Creedmoor in your opening post.


Being ugly is a curse and you do suffer from that, but stupid and ugly is a real curse. Good luck finding anything about the outdoors and shooting from your computer and stack of Jack and Jill magazines.

Versatile or not, the 30-06 provides the trunk of the American cartridge tree - all other cartridges provide the branches.

SchitSmel,

It is fhuqking HILARIOUS,how your Drooling Dumbfhuqktitude sooooo very reliably takes you to places that don't exist...you "lucky" kchunt. Hint. Congratulations?!?



Bless your heart,for doing your best though.

Hint.

Fhuqking LAUGHING!...............

I am thinking I would take one of the Merkels in any caliber

Ah. I see.

Usually, when people quote something they respond in such a way that it is relevant to the post they quote. Not something 10 pages back...I mentioned a lot of cartridges actually, but you seem very fixated on the Creedmoor and not addressing the others. Interesting.

But no, those pictures of you holding up dead rodents totally changed my mind! 30-06 is the best!

This comes off as butthurt and offended. And compared to what I see of you both physically and intellectually, I'm not sure you should be calling anyone out. But its always funny how a discussion on a cartridge goes so Kindergarden so fast.

And I might know a bit more about the outdoors than ya think But if you wanna pretend you're some kind of authority, go for it.

Color me "Guilty". Never felt I "needed" a 30-06 as I had a 7mm RM for 20 years, then got a 300WM. But I got a 30-06 in 2006, then another and another. Have hunted with all of them and taken elk with two of them, no drama at all.

The 30-06 is a great cartridge but my 280 Rem, 7mm RM, 300WM and 338WM generally get the call as my primary rifle during elk season. I do take a backup rifle, though, and my Zytel/stainless Ruger MKII 30-06 is often the choice. The backups usually get hunted with as well, just for fun.

I just bought one here too, even though I need it like a moose needs a hat rack. Actually, "bought one back" would be more accurate. Had this Winchester 70 Classic on the right since I was a kid, into starting to work for our dept of natural resources and sold it to my best bud a few years back when I moved off to the big city thinking I wouldn't ever need it. We both loved that rifle and I wanted it to have a good home. Well, he doesn't prefer it anymore so out of sentimentality....

Here it is next to another Win 70 in, you guessed it, 30-06.



For some reason, people's emotional reaction overrides their brain or reading comprehension. I don't dislike the caliber. i shoot one just fine. Please excuse the lack of inside out Richardson's ground squirrel pictures. I know, I'm not a real outdoorsman and it pains me greatly. All we've ever done is shot moose and a whackload of deer with it since we were teens.

Your post here and your sig line state it perfectly, Coyote Hunter. The 30-06 is a 99% solution. All I said was, it isn't the only one. There are other 99% solutions.
