Well ya, the -06 has the same diameter, heavier bullet(generally) and a larger case with more load.

Can't see in the case that the heavier bullet is better, the .30-06 doing worse than the .308 lol. It's physics.


On a side note my collection is MUCH smaller than when I worked at a gun store.

Now alls I have is my Bushy XM15, Romy AK-47, Rem 870 12ga with some "tactical goodies", 870 wing master 20g, Springfield 1906, Glock 23 .40 cal, and a few others...


I like my Dubstep to go Wop Wop Wop Wop

There are tons of things that will affect how a bullet reacts when in incounters outside forces, humidity, gravity, wind, partical deflection, mass deflection. There is a huge math problem that uses more vairables than I care to mention that will show you which rounds preform how. Things like power burn rate/consistancy, barrel to bullet friction, barrel lenght / twist, barrel flex, head spacing, bullet weight, bullet design, what the bullet is made of, the list goes on and on.

The the case of the 30-06 vs the .308 is the reason a 30-06 might do worse. The fact is that the .308 case/brass is designed to be more effective at producing a fast and even powder burn and propelent gas concentration at the bullet tail thus producing higher muzzle velocity and because the bullet weights can be the same from 125grn to a 180 grn bullet the foot pounds of transfered energy are equal to or greater with a lighter projectile than those of the 30-06 and with a flatter trajectory than the 30-06 they tend to be less effected by outside forces.

Ok just the two cents of an old Long range guys sorry if it seemed like a rant.

My favorite weapon currently that I'm working to afford again is the Savage 110B in .338 Lapua mag..
