Cute. I mean the premise that if one doesn't agree that the .308 is equal to the 30-06 that that means one doesn't have a "clue" about anything. laugh


Show me multiple species of actual big game you’ve taken with each the 308, 30-06, and 300 Mag... you talk a big talk, let’s see the animals (bigger than deer) taken with each three.


FWIW I've seen substantial numbers of pigs, deer (including a few sambar, which are close to elk-sized) and other medium game killed with both .308 and .30/06 and, assuming a suitable bullet and shot placement I haven't noticed any difference in effectiveness. A couple of people I know have used the .30/06 on buffalo, and it seemed to me based on how they went that there are better choices, though it is true to say that the .30/06 is better able to handle the 240 gn bullets they were using than a .308 would be.
