With the 1/2" longer case length of the 06 over the 308, The 06 will always be flatter shooting than a 308 because the case length allow more powder. I learned that a 308 was a castrated 30.06 from an Aussie. I had never thought of the 308 that way. I always thought of it as a low performance 30.06. I worked with a guy once who thought the sun rose and set on the 308. It was getting near deer season and the talk had turned to what caliber everyone was going to use. I made the comment I thought the 308 was a low performance 30.06. I do not think this guy could have got any anger-er that if I had called his Wife, Daughter and Mother Prostitutes. He was swelled-up for three or four days. One day someone brought in some performance data for Remington cartridges. He came over to where I worked to show me how well the 308 performed. He did not notice the the 30.06's data was also shown. It showed the the 30.06 was flatter shooting than the 308 and I told him that a 06 had a longer case than a 308. I also told him that with the longer case the 06 had more powder which provided more performance. I do not think he like what I had to say but he also had the data from the Remington flier in front of him. to summarize the 308 IS a low performance version of a 30.06
