Buy whichever rifle in either caliber that you like and go hunting...it will utterly matter not at all...

I love the .30-06 but you could look at the .280 it gives you more umph than a 6.5 creed or the 6.5x55. I have one it has killed a lot of deer and less recoil than a straight 30-06 very affordable to reload for as well.

.30-06 for the win. Way more versatile.

For hunting big game, as the OP said, how is it more versatile? What big game animal can the -06 take that the 280 (preferably AI) can't?

Pronghorn, both
Deer, both
Elk, both
Moose, both
Wolf, both
Mountain lion, both
Black bear, both


Now if you live in AK and hunt the big bears you may want the -06 over a 280, but that's a very small percentage of hunters.

Both can work up close, but farther out I'd give the edge to the 280, again especially in AI.

Way more versatile? Not seeing it.

Yep, 280 AI for the win.
But if only the other 2, then 280 Rem.

The .30-06 has taken the Big 5. The .280 is a nice medium game cartridge.
