300 Rum, or better yet 7.62 BMG...well....
Newer isnt always "better"....the 308w replaced the '06 IMHO because it was cheaper....less brass, less powder, less weight?...probably not because it was "better".
I love the 6.5's too...and the 7mm's and the .338's...they all have their place. But personally I prefer the 30-06 to the 308....did I go backwards?...no...I can load anything from mouse fart 100gr plinkers to 250gr cast lead sledghammers with one case that has enough capacity to be flexible and still be easy on barrels. That is asking a lot from the 308w or the 300RUM.
Whatever.
God bless
