I'm not sure about the 30-06 being able to do all the 280 can do and more, but if it is more it would come at the expense of added recoil, and if you are going to add more recoil I would rather be shooting a 7mm magnum and see a real bump in performance above the 280 compared to what you'll get with a 30-06 with the same recoil as the 7mm mag.
