Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Why I own a 30-06....

I've owned two '06's. One in an 03-A3 and the other in a Garand. Only reason they were '06 is because that's what those two rifles were chambered in. I was a lot more interested in the rifle than the cartridge. Learned what I wanted with each and down the road they went. Never owned one in any kind of hunting rifle and don't intend to. It does nothing more than about 2,000 other cartridges also do and do just as well. I find most of them a lot more interesting. None of that is to take anything away from the '06. It's a classic based on the just as good 8 X 57.
