[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 928388, member: 12995"] Wow...That scared me when I saw the title. I thought you were wanting to compare the 2 ballistically. :D I was gonna say, that's about like comparing a slingshot to a tomahawk missle. LOL The .300 Sherman is a better ballistic comparison than the standard .30-06. But they're still far apart. Also, the .30-06's really will shine with a 26" barrel. The reason they don't need a 22" vs 44" barrel is because even though it has twice the powder, the powder won't burn as fast creating more pressure to push the bullet faster, therefore it doesn't need a 44" barrel. The .30-06 will use a faster burnng powder only requiring a 22-24" barrel to reach good velocities. [/QUOTE]
