While I can't speak from experience, Phil Massaro indicates that the 7mm-08, .30-06, 0.308, and 0.338 are good all-around North American (non-dangerous game) calibres.

Just start a “.30-06 vs anything” thread!
Speaking of Squirrels, here's an article by Chuck Hawks explainingg what is being done to bury the 6.5x55 SE in N America. Only in America can SOME gunwriters twist things and sramble the truth this bad. NA Ammo Mfgrs. are'nt much better, Follow the money.

Thanks Chuck !https://thebiggamehuntingblog.com/26...-6-5x55-swede/

It’s laughable your narcissism would let you believe I would bite on bait regarding your validation of my intelligence.

It’s a simple thing, try and be accurate with our speech, if someone corrects us we could attempt to take it in stride. I don’t talk about your beloved .280 Winchester do I? Because it’s not correct and I respect that.
Oh dear, he gotcha, didn't he?

Oh boy this thread is all over the map lol

I went back and read the OP. If its not a recoil thing then I’d go 30-06. Just a little More bang and great for deer through moose. Not underselling the 7-08 it’s great.
