Yes, but who WINS the "discussion"?

I don't think anyone or any cartridge wins. The 30-06 has slightly more power than a .308, but perhaps a little less intrinsic accuracy. For most applications, the slight differences don't matter much. The rifle that shoots the cartridge is usually more important than the cartridge design in determining accuracy. I like and shoot both.
