The 300WM has a slight ballistic advantage over the 06 no doubt, but I dont kow too many guys whop have any business shooting 450 yards at anything. Now dont get me wrong, I know there are lots of guys that shoot 1k and 450 is a chip shot, but the vast majority of hunters are not able to make that shot.
If you are able and thnk you might be in a situation where a 450 yard shot the 300WM would get my nod, and Im a HUGE 30-06 fan, but at that range I want all the help I can get. This is assuming that the 300 wont kick me silly.
But I would take that shot with a 06 if that is what was in my hands at the time too.
