Well, if you look strictly at the two rifles mentioned, it's a no-brainer; the Remington 700 being a boltgun, will shoot rings around an HK-91. If you look strictly at the two catridges in comparable bolt action rifles, I would take the .30-06 for 1k shots (and I have both .308 and .30-06 sniper rifles and shoot regularly at 1000 yards). Here is why: when you are shooting at 1k, the biggest factor is the wind. Assuming you have an accurate rifle, ballistics is everything. With the .30-06, you can drive 190gr SMK's (BC of .533) at 2900fps and cut somewhat into the wind. The .308 simply cannot match the .30-06 with velocity and heavy, high BC bullets. Oh, and Jimmie, that article is 10 years old and based on nearly 50 year old data. With the slower burning powders we have today, and not being forced to load the '06 to pressures suitable to a M1 Garand, the '06 cartridge gives up nothing to the .308.
