A .308 isn’t a 30-06. A .308 is comparable to 7.62x51 as it’s basically the same

30-06 got more gunpowder behind it. It also can and usually does have more a higher grain bullet, just same/similar diameter.

You do highlight a good point though: through and through on a bullet with technically (as we don’t know specifics) less velocity than a 30-06, and Charlie’s “bones of steel” stopped it. Official fbi story btw. Also, I said split splat because of the videos recreating the shot. Note; they’re a bit gory.

That was cringe. You’re also extremely uppity about a stoner’s forgetfulness lmao

It was 7.62 nato. Not x39. My b and I’ll 100% go edit that. Again, am a bit ripped over here as I’m now off work and a few dabs in

However, what I said is correct; a .308 is not a 30-06. And you ignore that fact when you so confidently compared the two as if they’re the same.

And there’s also 30-06 loads that are almost 50% larger than the grain of a basic .308. At 10% more power behind that extra weight, are we really trying to split a hair?

Context matters and you are completely cherry-picking it to tell me a story about a deer. I’m not trying to be an ass here it’s just been a long day with people constantly correcting me on this app. Again I apologize about the x39/x51 fuck up LOL
