But nobody here really wants clarity, so I’ll add chronograph data comparing fresh WW PowerPoint factory ammo in a 22.7” Tikka T3 in 308 and a 24” FN Mauser in 30-06.
• 308/150 velocity was 2,782 fps in the Tikka.
• 308/180 velocity was 2,510 fps in the Tikka.
• 30-06/150 velocity was 2,911 fps in the FN Mauser, or 129 fps faster than the 308.
• 30-06/180 velocity was 2,734 fps in the FN Mauser, or 224 fps faster than the 308.

Thnx Okie.
First, I'm NOT cherry picking your post. ALL of it needs to be considered.
Very good points about AMMO and INDIVIDUAL rifles.
It 'shows to go' you, there is no hard and fast rule !
