Fuzzy I wonder if the warning might be more less due to super high power than fear of bullet deformation in a semiauto?
My recollection is that semis really slam the shell home after a pretty rough ride up the feed ramp. In a bolt action rifle you generally close the bolt with a nice smooth motion.
Back on topic, my vote is for the 30-06 between the two. A person needs to get a rifle they can still shoot in 30 years when they'll be a better shot but a bit arthritic.
