The 30.06 is one the best versatile rounds out there. Brush to three hundred yards, it is wonderful. It also has tremendous options for bullet size and FPS.
I doubt that I am the only one that has harvested deer with all those calibers , and then a lot of other calibers also ,, they all work good ,,they all shoot plenty accurate,,they all are fun to shoot ,, so just use what ya got and be proud of it.
Killed my first deer in '67 with 6.5x55 Sweedish Mauser 430 yd. They all work. My favorite is..... no surprise.... 6.5 Creedmoor. But I own and love 308 and 30-06. And there are situations where I would prefer those.
We used to shoot sharks with the 30-06 Garand .. did the same thing to it head cut creted a feeding frenzy so shot lots of themm Ecrybody got a chance. Lots of tun
I've shot deer with all 3 30 cals. Never shot the creedmore. The only 6.5 I've used for deer was the .264 Winchester mag. However, they all killed deer just as dead. Really enjoy your videos. Especially when you take your kids. Merry Christmas to you and yours and hope you have a great new year.
Here’s an idea 💡 for ya take a 2 quart plastic pop bottle and cut the top off stuff it full of clay lay it on its side and shoot it up the open clay end and see how it explodes! I hope I said it right as 2 quart here in Canada they are called 2 litre. I just wonder if it will blow the plastic out like a flower 🌸
😝 we call them 2 Liters here in the states as well. That’s a hell of an idea you have right there with a 2 liter pop bottle. I’m gonna try it out at our range. ✌🏽
It's awsome that the the 30-30 is still mentioned along with the 308 and 30-06 when it comes to hunting. Next time, instead of using a 🪵 for a backstop, try using a new and improved high tech fleece bullet trap. Thanks for the vid.
30/06 and proper bullets and placement has dropped every big game animal on earth and won two World Wars. Nothing beats it's versatility and flexible use.
I'd like to see a video where you take a lead tip, like a CoreLock against a solid copper - Barnes TTSX, Hornady GMX and against an exploding bullet like the Berger and compare the damage to clay blocks. Be interesting. Your clay supplier must love you.
At that close a range the destruction of the flags blocks is not that surprising. At 100 yards might have been a better comparison. Well maybe 50 yards with the 30-30, those iron sights may be hard to hit the clay at 100.
yeah me as well, i took a picture of a really old box of Remington CoreLokt, and i know its old because their boxes are not dark green and gold anymore, but they were asking $62.99 and i was mind blown.
those butterflies can smell the holy ghost on your lucky ass, lol. on a serious note, I have made that same face when unexpected debris came back and slapped me. thanks for the videos, man.
Wow! It's summer again, love it. If I was looking for a rifle caliber that would get a deer down and put more venison in the freezer and less blood shot meat in the dog food bowl I would choose....300 blackout! Great video. All 4 calibers are winners. I'm glad the .30-30 was included. With modern bullets and powder it is better than ever.
It’s pretty clear, your clay isn’t up to withstanding deer hunting ammo! If it could it would run and hide. If it weren’t for slow-mo, we couldn’t see how truly devastating those rounds are on that clay. Great video!
I really like watching your videos but would love to see you do a video on the 224 Valkyrie with 88 or 90 grain bu-las and also the 2545 sharps and 87 grain bu-las. Keep putting out those really fun videos Merry Christmas
Im now 33 and have used my Rem 760 Game Master .308 sense i was 12, and it has killed everything ive ever shot with it, really no matter where i hit them! all mostly good shots, but theres always that one or two that make it a few bounds before going down, i use my .308 mostly but have her semi retired, for another 7600 30-06, and a 7600 .35 Whelen AMERICA STRONG STAY FREE LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC
WTH, cool video. Would like to see this same video but at 100 yards so we can see how the distance impacts the bullet energy and foot pounds. I'm thinking you might catch one in the clay.
All good calibers, it’s amazing to me how many different ones there are for a new hunter to choose from. Shot the one you like best, thanks again WTW for fun, informative, and action filled videos. Good shooting and gods speed to your family and fans. 👍🇺🇸
It's tuff to beat a 30/06 as a gun you can rely on to kill anything you encounter in all the 50 states. Even the seldom found pineapple bear. Have a great day buddy.🙂
Love the smell of gunpowder in the morning! 45-70 is my go-to weapon cause we have to deal with bear and Timber wolves up here in Minnesotah. Have you ever done a video on the 45-110, or other classic old time cavalry/buffalo guns?
Lol hes not trying to keep it together.. thats why hes shooting clay.. it illustrates the explosive power of the cartridge.. the box is just to help contain it a little so the mess aint too bad..
I felt as though 30-06 would perform the best... My favorite is .308 because that's what I have and enjoy shooting. Can't get 168 grain to 180 grain in a 6.5 Creedmore. I like heavier rounds for hunting big game! Wouldn't mind having a 3030 or a 30-06 but I have an awesome Savage .308 and an awesome AR 10 pistol that hit hard and accurate.
I always like the music you use in the videos. To that catchy 80s metal sounding guitar riff, to the country song at the end. And yeah exploding clay is pretty awesome too.
