The 30/06 Springfield.
When I look at the 06 I see the cartridge that will do it all without question. It's the round that helped win the two world wars and most of all the round associated with the greatest country on earth. I heard another old club member just passed on. Joe J. was a marine in the South Pacific in WW11 where my uncle died fighting for the US Army. He said that they were issued armor piercing for the 06 as it would penetrate the bunkers better that the japs used.
On collecting. A friend just gave me a cartridge marked Peters .300 Magnum. It has a 220 gr hollow point bullet that's a copper alloy at the nose, a nickle looking belt on the bullet about a half inch long and then the remainder of the bullet is the copper alloy.
