I’ve always heard that the 308 Win will do everything the 30-06 will do. I also know that Marlin wanted a comparable round to the 308 Win in a lever action and came up with the 308 Marlin Express. Does this mean that the 308 Marlin is as good, or comparable to the 30-06? Why do you suppose Marlin didn’t just make a rimmed case that matches the 308 Win case and make it exactly the same as the 308 Win? Is it because there is some sort of professional unwritten courtesy to not make rim cased bullets exactly like rebated rimmed cases?
And lastly, if the Marlin cartridge isn’t very similar to the 308 Win, what is comparable to it?
