I have not hunted with a T/C yet but I wonder what the recoil would be like with the 300. I think if I were looking for an all arond deer caliber from these three it would be hard to pass up the ole 06. There is no denying the usefulness of this caliber and you will not have the recoil issues you might with a 300. While an 06 is capable of shots as long as 500 yds, if these were the norm I might be more inclined to go with the 300. However, I feel that most hunters, myself included, cannot reliably shoot this far and should make every attempt to close the distance considerably to 300 or so, perfect for the06.
