This video compares the .30-06 Springfield to its 'children' cartridges: .25-06, .270 Win, .280 AI, and .35 Whelen, through penetration tests on lumber, steel, concrete, and sand. The .35 Whelen demonstrates superior penetration, shattering lumber and piercing steel, while sand proves an effective backstop for all tested calibers. The .30-06 itself shows more impact than its smaller variants but is outclassed by the .35 Whelen.
