Nope. Welcome to physics. A difference of around 150fps will remain constant regardless of projectile weight. There's a reason the NATO standard is 7.62x51. Here's another hot tip. The 30-06 ammo used by the US military was downloaded when compared to civilian 30-06. This was done due to military range constraints. The downloaded 30-06, was nearly identical to .308 loadings....Weird..
@GeorgiaBoy19613 жыл бұрын
@@225degrees- Re: "The 30-06 ammo used by the US military was downloaded when compared to civilian 30-06. This was done due to military range constraints." The original 30-06 loading used in the Great War, World War One, was a 150-grain spitzer (pointed) flat-base bullet (G1 ballistic coefficient of .405) fired at ~ 2700 fps. Its claimed maximum range was 4700 yards, but that estimate was later shown after the war to be incorrect, and during the war U.S. troops firing the cartridge from medium machine guns had also noticed a discrepancy. When tested to full distance, the M1906 cartridge actually had a max. range of 3300-3400 yards. During that era, long-range harassing and interdicting machine-gun fire was considered important, so work began on a new projectile for the 30-06. In 1926, M1 Ball/FMJ was introduced, using a 174-grain jacketed boat-tail bullet with a BC of .494 and a MV of ~ 2647 fps whose maximum range was approximately 5,500 yards. At that time, standard practice was to use up old ammo stocks first for training & drill purposes, and since wartime surplus amounted to some two billion rounds (!) of M1 30-06 ammunition, there was a lot of it to be used. By 1936, it was discovered that the maximum range of M1 Ball was beyond the safe limits of many firing ranges, in particular National Guard ranges in many eastern states. A rush order went out for production of a cartridge essentially duplicating the old M1906 cartridge, and in due course, M2 Ball arrived in 1938. It utilized a 152-grain FMJ-FB projectile backed by IMR-4895 (or its equivalent) @ 2800 fps. It's maximum range was 3450 yards. Military 30-06 was not "downloaded." per se, compared to civilian loads; it is simply the performance specified by the War Department and the Army. Their testing had to take into account not just how the cartridge would function in a bolt-action, but in automatic weapons such as the Browning BAR, Johnson light machine-gun, and M191 Browning medium machine gun. For the 30-06 case, a 150-grain bullet at 2800 fps is not in any sense a "tame" or weak load. While it is possible to squeeze another 150-200 fps out of it in a bolt-action, there would have been no reason to do so in a military-pattern firearm. It would have increased recoil, hastened wear-and-tear, and hurt accuracy for only a modest gain in power and range. When propellant chemistry advanced during/after WWII, thanks to R&D at DuPont and elsewhere, it became possible to achieve the same performance with a 150-grain bullet using less propellant and hence a shorter case. If you have ever seen a round of M2 Ball sectioned or taken apart, you will note that the powder load did not entirely fill the case anyway. That also helped the designers of 7.62NATO/.308 when it came time to shorten the older cartridge. That's how they moved from 7.62x63 to 7.62x51.... As a rule of thumb, loaded to its full-and-maximum potential, bullets etc. alike, the long-action 30-06 will deliver 150-200 fps greater MV than the short-action .308 Winchester/7.62x51 NATO. The shorter cartridge keeps pace, performance-wise, until around 175-180 grains, when the greater case volume of the '06 begins to really tell...

I realize that's more of a battle rifle standard, while 30-06 is more of a hunting cartridge, at least these days. I understand why the 308 was developed. They wanted a shorter cartridge. Still, 30-06 in a modern semiautomatic rifle would be great. So far, the only one I know of, is a modern BAR, and it costs $6,700.

I asked my dad the .308 vs. 30-06 question a few years ago. He said that with a rifle barrel up to 22” in length, there’s not much difference in performance between a .308 and a 30-06. He said that the.308 seemed to be more consistent and more accurate, shooting the same 150 grain projectile. His theory was that you needed a longer barrel length to burn that extra powder and gain the extra velocity of the 30-06 cartridge.

Since the 308 was designed to be "just like the 30.06" ballistics wise, the results make perfect sense. After all, it was designed for the military with specific requirements to be like the 30.06 only in a smaller form so that more ammo could be carried. Yes, the 30.06 has a small, insignificant in practice, advantage when looking at the numbers but would a deer say..."hey, shoot me with at sissy 308 would you"? I think not. LOL

@TROOPERfarcry3 жыл бұрын
The issue is that while the 30-06 can theoretically be made to handle heavy 200+ grain bullets, most off-the-shelf rifles don't have the twist-rate to support that theoretical advantage. Also, while there is obviously more case-capacity, the maximum pressures for the two are different, with the 308 having a higher safe maximum pressure. The ability to load hotter in the 308 is usually enough to make the cartridges more-or-less interchangeable. - The 30-06 isn't less effective just because it's a 100 years old, but it is designed around powders that are more-or-less outdated.

With the lighter bullets this is very true. 30-06 doesn't typically really shine until you use heavier bullets with slower powders....then the 30-06 shows it's true potential. Of course many hunting loads below 170grains both will be so close that for must the difference will be negligible.

You have to take into consideration what velocities are present at the target and what projectile differences there is . Projectile softness and construction differences can skew the results also . It appeared to me that the 30-06 projectile expanded more violently and broke the first paver in more pieces . That would translate to a larger wound channel . I have used 308 W and 30-06 a lot and I have no doubt that the 30-06 with the heavier bullets it can push has more killing power than a 308 W .

Appreciate the test and all your work. Not sure it proves much however unless we start hunting pavers. My guess is a 44 mag would do pretty much the same thing at this range. Both these are tremendous calibers for almost anything in the lower 48. It also might be more fair to compare these two with a normal loading of 150 for the .308 and 180 for the 30-06. As an example if you were comparing a 26-06 to the 30-06 you would use different weight bullets for a fair comparison even though the 30-06 could also shoot anything the 26-06 could. In off the shelf ammo the .308 has the advantage of being a newer round and not downloaded for older guns. When I started hunting I bought a 30-06 because I waned to hunt elk and moose besides deer. I still think a hand loaded 180 Nosler Partition at 2700-2800 is a wonderful killer and has always done it for me. When in Alaska I always thought when hunting moose that it would suffice for big bears if you happened to bump into one even if not the first choice.

30-06 is a much heavier round: exactly! you're using a long action rifle with a cartridge half an inch longer and 15-25% more powder for what? 100-150fps extra? if you add another 0.15" length use can use a 300winmag instead :) Also, nothing stopping you from loading heavy bullets in your 308 either.

I even dropped a 2½" twelve by twelve over my foot. If I hadn't been wearing steel cap boots, I'd broken my foot (I did scrape my shin and performed a wicked dance of loud commotion).

Your observation is correct: Propellant technology during the time of the Second World War was not as advanced as it later became. The 30-06 case was not filled to capacity when firing a 150-grain bullet, as in the M2 version of the cartridge. This is in part because the M-1 Garand, the world's first widely-issued self-loading military service rifle, was not designed to fire high-pressure hunting loads of the kind used in bolt-actions by hunters of big game. You needn't take a bear-hunting cartridge to war; something suitable for medium game - such as deer - is quite ample to the task. The "empty space" as you term it was the 12mm case length they removed to make the short-action 7.62x51 NATO (or in civilian guise, ,308 Win.). Modern propellants made it possible to get the same level of performance out of the shorter case with the same caliber/weight and type of bullet, an FMJ or ball round of ~ 147-150-grains at about 2800 fps. Both the M-1 and M-14 like powders in the IMR-4895 or IMR-4064 burn-rate range. Military ammo contracts were filled with propellants with similar specs, but blended in custom lots. However, the two cartridges are not equivalent in every way. The longer 30-06 case, when loaded with modern propellants and projectiles and to the limits of its design, hits harder and shoots farther than the short-action .308. It is also capable of handling heavy 190-220-grain projectiles which are too much for the short-action .308 (Yeah, you can use 'em in a .308 case, but they don't perform as well as they do out of a long-action case).

Probably a different story for armies not based on conscription, but back in the days of the 7.62x51, most NATO armies were either entirely or to some extend based on conscription.
