What, in your opinion, is the best general purpose rifle round? I think the 45-70 is a strong contender.

.308 win

9mm subsonic. If you're complaining about lack of stopping power you're probably just bad and using a crutch item.

19 shots later and you MIGHT be able to kill a bear.

.308 is the answer. Manageable recoil, most common full size rifle chambering in the world, can kill a boar in one shot, penetrates hard armor fairly frequently, good range, and good ballistic properties.

>>30425344
This is it. This is the most half assed post I've ever read. Zero attention to the topic, .45 detracting, literally shilling fucking 9mm, and clearly bait at the same time. Fucking Christ, did you even try?
>>
>>30425250
45-70 has terrible recoil and piss poor ballistics. 30-06 can kill anything from ground squirrels to grizzly bears, and has moderate recoil. 270 is almost as powerful and shoots flatter.

30-06?

Second would be 7.62 for pretty much the same reason.

>zero attention to the topic

9mm is an exceedingly commonly used Spetznaz chambering in AS VAL and VSS Vintorez rifles.

Usually subsonic because the use of suppressors is associated with those rifles

If you use a loudener on a .22 semi-auto,
You could probably intimidate someone pretty well at a distance.

As long as they don't get hit, because then they would probably facepalm and become fearless.

You've obviously never shot something living with one then, 45-70 has incredible penetration especially with a 405 grain hard cast lead.

Here's your reminder that 45-70 is no longer a black powder round.

Or you know because it has a fuckheavy for caliber bullet eating up case capacity. Suppressors aren't magic.the ballistics and trajectory are pretty shitty for a all purpose round as well.

But hey try to act like it wasn't a retarded post. Whats next a .35remington .358win, 9x62, .357 maximum?

Uhh... maybe 30 Carbine? Definitely 22.250.

>what round can kill a durr without red misting a squirrel?
You're going to want a shotgun, then. A shotgun can do all your previous questions as well.

Best rifle in town? Don't you mean best rifle around?

>>30425264
As much as I love the 45-70 either this or 30-06. The op choice while fun powerful and easy to reload is limited to range and availability at times. For North America 308/30-06 will do basically anything needed for hunting and is easy(ish) to find

Not only that, but ammo is heavier, etc. etc.

Realistically speaking, most people aren't even going to take advantage of .30-06's capabilities anyway.
