That is the truth.
When all is said and done, I would have done fine with 30-06 when I was hunting. My brother had a 7mm and liked it so I got one as well.
The funny part was that the one time I got to use its range, I didn't trust it and aimed too high.
30-06 would have dropped the Moose, the 7mm just grazed the top of the back, split the skin, you could see the bone.
1/8 inch lower and it would have dropped like a rock. We got it but that turned into a classic (or not so classic) story.
