To be almost 50 and not own at least one 30-06 hunting rifle? Looking very close at a Vanguard. Or should I just get a .308?
At least when I was younger I never got along with an 06. But I was plenty at home with a 308. Difference in recoil and I've shot African game cartridges with no problem. Well now days with the powders and bullets available, just go with the 308. Ballistics, felt recoil and short action make it a win.
 
30-06 is The Lord's caliber!!!! I have no less than 7 rifles in that caliber. One is a Winchester made Garand, and another is a 1903 Springfield. The rest are an assortment of Remington 700's and tang safety Rugers. In my opinion, it's an excellent all around cartridge for North America. I run 165gr Barnes TTSX for everything, but there are plenty of lighter bullets for the recoil sensitive.
