I despise the .30-06 and any of the off spring. Growing up I had an uncle thats all you heard. .30-06 drops all animals in their tracks, field dress it, and quarter it for you. .30-06 can take down planes and stop a M1A tank. Ok, maybe Im exaggerating a little, but you get the idea.
The 6.5 Creedmoor, hate it. It was pushed so hard in every gun rag, that people were buying them that had no firearm knowledge, because they expected it to be the most accurate thing made. It does nothing the .260 Remington hadn't been doing for years.
