The .30-06 Springfield (more rarely known as 7.62x63mm) is a large rifle caliber developed in 1906. It was the US Army's standardized cartridge for nearly fifty years, until the introduction of its successor, the 7.62x51mm NATO in 1954. It is the iconic cartridge of the most famous Allied weapon in World War II, the M1 Garand.
This caliber's power allows for shots well over 1 km of distance. As such, it is considered a high-tier caliber in Mazeworld, more powerful than its successor, the 7.62x51mm NATO.
Real-life data
Invented prior to World War I, the .30-06 Springfield cartridge was developed as an improvement of the backwards and short-lived .30-03. Designed alongside a modification of the M1903 Springfield rifle, the M1906, the .30-06 was designed with increased maximum effective range in mind, after a study revealed that the WWI American weapons were far outclassed by European designs and calibers.
The .30-06 Springfield was designed for use with the Springfield M1903, the former WWI service rifle of the US Army, before the introduction of the M1 Garand. It was also used in the BAR machine gun, and in a few other weapons. During World War II, it was part of the "big three" of service calibers, alongside its German and Soviet counterparts.
It remained in use with the US Military for nearly 50 years, making it one of the longest-lived service cartridges of the world, before the introduction and standardization of the 7.62x51mm NATO and the rifle it was introduced with, the M14 rifle.
