[QUOTE="cgarb, post: 1519668, member: 55318"] Several years ago a co-worker and I were prepping to go to a Colorado elk hunt. He had a Browning X bolt in 308 that he shot very well. It shot Hornady Superformance 165gr like a house of fire. He kept saying that he wanted something more powerful so I suggested a 300 win mag like I was shooting. He ended up buying a Winchester M70 in 30-06 and had a pretty difficult time finding ammo it liked. It shot the 180gr Winchester Supreme decent but not as good as his 308. He never got the opportunity to use it, but I have no doubt his 308 would have made any shot that his 30-06 would have made, he wouldn't have needed to buy another weapon and he was more accurate.
