I started with magnums early on. That’s what Dad bought us, and that’s what we shot. Many years later, after getting tired of having the snot slapped out of me, I bought my first 30-06. Today I think it’s the best hunting round ever created. It just works. It’s not the fastest, but how much power do you need? Shot placement is the key to successful hunting. And the best shots I’ve made on game, have been with my 30-06. I’ll stay with it. I love my 338 WM, but doubt I’ll get back to Alaska. So I’ll just use one of my 30-06’s. Because they just work.
