Why do folks call it boring?
Because their lives are an existential hell of dissatisfaction. They are constantly searching for some new thrill to stimulate their dead souls but, never finding it, they continue their vain and fruitless quest while all the time their haven and safe harbor is sitting at home, unused, "boring".
Yet like the prodigal son, when they have finally spent their fortunes and honor they return home to find their "boring" .30-06 waiting for them, not rebuking them but rather rejoicing at their return. It will kill the fatted calf for them...
... or fatted deer, or elk, or bear, or any multitude of fatted beasts of the field and forest using most any reasonable bullet and always with just one well placed shot.
