270 vs 30-06

[cariboo_kid]

It's baaaack, the thread that refuses to die. I can't beleive you all neglected this thread for an entire year.

I always remember this thread with a laugh when I think about the fact that Gatehouse did eventually buy a 30/06.

 

[crazy_davey]

Wow! What a relic this thread is. And 45 pages to boot

 

[300Spartans]

Ya, but it was informative. That's all that counts.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo


everyone knows the 30-06 is better

 

[cariboo_kid]

Informative, umm, ok...

I've actually never seen such a wealth of information on red squirrel defense, so I guess you are right.

I watched the documentary "Ice Age, The Meltdown" last week. My lord! I'm glad I never had to face a saber-tooth squirrel before.

You laugh boy, you laugh. And just hope you never meet Lucifer the red squirrel eye'n up your nutstack Saber-tooth, shmaber tooth - totally over rated

 

[popcan]

Well, it's getting boring again....


what about .308 vs 30-06?

My buddy bought a Sako in 30-06. He thinks he will out do my .308 Tikka.

 

[cariboo_kid]

Those two rifles are so close that it sounds almost incestuous...

It would be quite amazing if it did in fact shoot better than your Tikka. That is one heck of an accurate rifle.

I just got an email from Canada Post that my 270 has shipped, but let's not tell anyone else that reads this thread - OK?

It's time to ressurect salty and foxers greatest thread...aye lad it's baaaack...

 

[John Y Cannuck]

Ok, time for a grave turning.
Why does the 270 even exist?

So Jack O'Connor would have something to write about.

 

[catnthehatt]

I was thinking of getting a new HUNTING rifle. I've narrowed downt he choices to .270 or 30-06.

What do you think would be the best for HUNTING?

:wink:

I just cought this!!
You GOTTA be kidding , right , GH?

I can see no good reason to keep a 30-06 or a .270 when you can get them both in Short Mag Versions.... live in the now....

I thought that was 270 Weatherby & 308 Norma Mag

Why does the 270 even exist?

It gives all other cartridges something to be measured by.

80yrs later ....... we really haven't progressed that much.

what the 270??

I think SC has it nailed here. Its quite usefull to compare any cartridge to the gurly-gun 270 winchester and go from there

1. Crow control.
2. Great cartridge for kids.

If my 270 is a girly-gun, what does that make my 257Roberts?

A desperate cry for help?

Cooler than the 30-06, yet still girly. And less than the 257 weatherby

Prolly a good longer range dangerous squirrel round
