joelkdouglas Campfire Regular J Joined: Sep 2011 Posts: 2,038 Wyoming	No flies on any 30 cal rifle (though I wouldn't personally choose a 300 Blackout for something like an elk hunt), but I like to shoot. Some are tough enough to put volume through something like a 300 Win Mag, but not I. My pick is the 30-06. If I were starting over today I might pick the 308 Win instead, but I already made the 30-06 decision 12 years ago. Now with plenty of H4350 and 180 Partitions and Accubonds I'm not changing to a different platform. Tomorrow that 30-06 and I will be elk hunting...
