[QUOTE="GeorgeS, post: 1619604, member: 107925"] "Despite owning them, I dislike both cartridges equally" If you read what I wrote carefully, you will see that we essentially agree; my point is that a .30-06 is loaded to a lower pressure, owing to the age of its provenance, than is the .300. As a result, the '06 is not as much of a slouch as you claim if it is loaded to pressures that are perfectly tolerable with receivers using modern metallurgy. I was also clear that the additional capacity of the .300 case will always give it an edge, which is obvious. I doubt very much that a well-placed shot from either would be debated by the recipient. If you dislike them both, then why do you have them? We normally shoot to bring ourselves enjoyment, not irritation. [/QUOTE]
