Date: July 14th, 2025 8:56 PM Author: vivacious olive forum For what purpose? 30-06 has so much history but certainly has been eclipsed for performance. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101641) |

Date: July 14th, 2025 9:33 PM Author: charismatic canary temple alpha I keep a bunch of 30-06 on hand for use in family hand me downs, but if you’re buying new why wouldn’t you go with 308 or similar? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101719) |

Date: July 14th, 2025 9:49 PM Author: vivacious olive forum Man I’d go with 6.5 Creedmoor if starting from scratch, especially if you reload. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101769) |

Date: July 14th, 2025 9:50 PM Author: khaki exhilarant church I know they say you should but I still think its gay, the new military caliber seems even worse, .308 will do everything you need and you aren't a sniper, I will give allowance for the weirdos trying to shoot at 1000 yards but that isn't really an important thing (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101770) |

Date: July 14th, 2025 10:02 PM Author: vivacious olive forum I’d really love to do 1k shooting but not where that’s practical now. Sad that when I was, and had time, I didn’t have the money for the gear. Such is life.
Anyway, the bullet drop difference is less than I thought.

Date: July 14th, 2025 10:18 PM Author: khaki exhilarant church yeah, and you'll never shoot a living thing at 600 yards in your life so who the fuck cares? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101849) |

Date: July 14th, 2025 9:11 PM Author: khaki exhilarant church .270 kicks like a fucking mule and there are very few reasons to pick 30.06 over .308, I guess I'd take .270 just for being so fast (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101668) |

Date: July 14th, 2025 9:17 PM Author: Irate Electric Furnace Dilemma so you're saying the 270 kicks more than the 30-06? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101680) |
|
Date: July 14th, 2025 9:18 PM Author: khaki exhilarant church obviously a ton depends on the gun but I think it is a very, very sharp and direct kick (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101683) |
|
Date: July 14th, 2025 9:30 PM Author: Irate Electric Furnace Dilemma doesn't this defy logic? all things equal (e.g. 8lbs rifle), wouldn't the standard 30-06 load (165 grain bullet) have more recoil than a 270 with a standard 130 grain bullet? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101714) |
|
Date: July 14th, 2025 9:46 PM Author: khaki exhilarant church felt recoil is influenced by speed and the maximum pressure of .270 is higher, it has more powder per grain (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101757) |
|
Date: July 14th, 2025 10:04 PM Author: Irate Electric Furnace Dilemma larger caliber bullet rounds will recoil more than smaller. e.g. a 7mm-08 150 grain will recoil less than a 308 150 grain in same weight rifle. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101813) |

Date: July 14th, 2025 10:17 PM Author: khaki exhilarant church not if one of them is going 20% faster, the powder charge is where all of the energy comes from, and I think you're confusing caliber for weight, a larger projectile will do what you say but diameter isn't the deciding factor, weight is (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101846) |

Date: July 14th, 2025 10:51 PM Author: khaki exhilarant church not at all but I promise you that you can find things that recoil harder than a .45 that are much, much smaller diameter calibers (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5750384&forum_id=2#49101932) |
