Yes, prepare and cook! Yum! I live in city and I have less chances for hunting these days, but well made game is really delicious! Here hunting season for grouses and related birds are quite short, usually between September and October, and this year there are even more restrictions due smaller populations. I'm really envious glad for Swedes. They have excellent chances to hunt grouses/birds, and it is also allowed in winter.
30-06 is a gentlemans old school cartridge. Stylish choice and a real rifle caliber. Personally I am huge fan of 6.5x55 (Swedish mauser). It is very versatile. With a proper bullet selection, it 'does it all'. Birds, deer, etc. It also has very nice ballistic properties and offers lot of fun for handloader. If I would have to choose between .308 or 6.5 for hunting, I would probably pick the latter.
