I agree with you.

ATST for some hunters, who are NOT loonys, and don't or won't have multiple rifles for larger game....

The 'venerable' 06 is a great round for deer --------> Moose. Maybe a guy is only going to hunt Elk a few Xs or
Moose a few Xs or Grizzly ONCE then the 06 makes a great choice.
