    Push back a bit is really all they do. The word recoil only means something when you use a rifle that starts with .4 and is used on the worlds toughest, the ones that want to eat you or stomp you into the dirt.
    Velocity is thrilling,but diameter does the real killing.

    For me, residing in the U.S. the chief advantage of the 06 is the unequaled availability of ammo with the 308 win and the 270 win trailing it, but not by much.

    Whatever the 06 can do the 308 certainly comes within 90% plus or minus and 300 yds. In no animal will know the difference. The 308 win is a bit milder to shoot which is a plus.
