Abstract
- The article presents information on the .30/.06 cartridge, which was adjudged as the favorite whitetail cartridge and the best big-game cartridge in a survey. It was created by the U.S. Army, and its original designation was the .30 Government Model 1906, and it was originally chambered for the legendary Springfield Model 1903 rifle, with which the U.S. army fought World War I. The standard military loading was a 150-gram bullet at 2700 fps. The '06 is loaded with bullets that range in weight from 110 grains to 220.
