My goofy nephew came up to me at first light of elk season opener about 3 miles in and told me he forgot the bullets for his 30-06. I told him to go over to one of the next couple of ridges and ask to borrow a couple of rounds from the hunters set up there (part of our group). Sure enough he came back about 20 minutes later with 4 180 grain 30-06 cartridges.......I would be surprised if you could do that with anything but the old 06.
