I’m bias to the old 06. 168 ttsx is my go to for elk, tikka. The ttsx little expensive for range time, but 180 tipped game kings are moa shooters, cheap to shoot and can also be used on elk, deer or ring steel. 270 is my favorite deer round, but is always with me as a back up for elk loaded with 130 ttsx. I load up 140 sst just shy of 3050 FPS for deer and range time. I don’t think you need 7mag for under 400/500 yard shots. Especially the Extra recoil and expense.

All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.
