Cartridges you can live without?

[AzDak42]

I'm sorry, I'm still trying to remember where someone was attacking the merits of the 30-06...

I think we need a title for this poster... "Don Quixote" Tilting at windmills and non-offenses against the 30-06.

(PS - I just bought one... it's lovely.. like it a lot.... I think next I"m going to get a 338WM or 300WM just because...)

YH,

I am with you on your comments.
A magnum doesn't make up for poor shot placement.

We put too much into the merits of a cartridge, like the 30-06. We aren't talking about technology or a situation where reliability plays a role, like in vehicles, etc. Just because the 30-06 came into play before the 300WSM (or fill in the blank with any other cartridge), and has taken more game, doesn't alone mean that the 30-06 is superior. Ask yourself this, if the 30-06 was a new offering this year, would you buy it, or go with something else?

This is in no way a bash on the 30-06 by me. I like the cartridge a lot and consider it a great choice. I just feel that we need to take a closer look at what is really being said.

goat.....

if it was new offering... no.

As much as I love hunting I can't stand seeing this FOTIS

Oh look... isn't this kooool.... look what my 30-378 did... dah hah...

I see a dead antelope. A successful and legal hunt!

If you do not like it do not look at it.... period. My animal not yours, plain and simple. Great to live in a free country huh?

Obviously you have no idea what that choice of firearm was all about. You just inferred it.

Again I ask you are you from NJ and a huge fan of the 270 Win? You "sound" familiar.
