Well then, why not .30-06 vs .308?

Another shooter was firing his 338 Lapua yesterday, about three benches over from me. The muzzle brake looked similar to this:

Its bark wasn't nearly as obnoxious as the Swiss cheesed one on the 30-378 Weatherbys I've been around.

Yep, and a 1/2 ton truck and a 10 ton truck are both trucks.

Those things at a range with a tin roof over the benches are wicked to bystanders...

when I take my 50BMG out to the range, I can clear benches as far as 10 benches down, but most of them go back to there cars till I'm done.

In a race the 30-378 will win every time. No even a contest.

I'm afraid you're not too bright if that isn't telling you something.

I have a .338 WM with a brake. There are times I take it to the range and then never take it to a bench because of the problems it would cause other shooters. Basic courtesy!

I have a braked .338 WM. If there is anybody else at the range at all I immediately unscrew the brake and shoot the rifle sans brake.

Because we're all far more interested in the enormous difference between the .300 Savage and the .308. wink

the 30-30 is a pretty good gun

Anyone who claims the 30-06 is not effective has either not used one, or else is unwittingly commenting on their marksmanship.

Why does it say "338 Lapua Vs.30/378" as a title to the thread on the forum list page and "30/06 Vs. 30/378" when you open the thread?

I'd actually shoot an '06. I'd laugh at the idea of shooting a 30/378. I'm sure it is a useful cartridge, but I don't have a use for one, and the noise/recoil/concussion wouldn't be worth it to me. I've seen YT videos of guys shooting big guns on a dare--not funny.

I'm more inclined to go smaller capacity than '06 before larger.
