[QUOTE="jski, post: 1543904, member: 104291"] Considering one of these 2 round for competition shoots. I noticed this immediately: .30-06 Case capacity 68 gr H2O (4.4 cm3) .308 Case capacity 56 gr H2O (3.6 cm3) That give the .30-06 a 21% greater case capacity, before considering anything else. Then I noticed that there are Xtreme powder (e.g., H1000) loads for the .30-06, none for the .308. And if I’m not mistaken, there is a greater selection of “super bullets” (e.g., Berger) for the .30-06. So, before considering anything else, from the go the .30-06 appears to be a superior round for LR competition. [/QUOTE]
