Both are fine bucks! In fact both are fine cartridges as well! Pretty hard to argue with the 30-06. In fact I have a heavily used early t3 from when they were first imported that is due for a new barrel and I am more likely than not going to stick a longer 30-06 barrel on it, as I figure I am not likely to shoot it out, which would not be the case with the smaller bores.
The case for just choosing a 30-06 as a "one and done" cartridge is pretty strong, especially these days with the projectile choice (when available).
Great job on that hunt!
