All-Around Big Game Caliber
okie john:
I go back and forth between a 22" 30-06 with 180s at 2,700 and a 20" 308 with 165s at 2,700. Each has a Nightforce 3-10x42 SHV with a 4x Leupold in reserve.

"all those Army snipers" are only shooting 150 lb humans, not 600lb elk. And, just to be clear, they don't really get to "pick" their caliber, unless they're Spec Ops, and then none of those guys are shooting .308s.

Another :tup: for 6.5 PRC here. Don't see the need for anything else at the moment. If I had a passed-down 300 or 7mm I'd probably stick with one of those as well.

Hand loaded 30/06
With powders like Ramshot big game can get close to .300 win numbers.
Hard to beat a tikka t3x 30-06
