List of .30-06 Springfield firearms

{{short description|None}}

The below table gives a list of firearms that can fire the .30-06 Springfield cartridge (7.62×63mm in metric notation). The cartridge was originally developed from the round-nosed .30-03 Springfield cartridge as a response to the adoption of spitzer bullets by various European armies in the late 19th to early 20th century. It was the service cartridge of the U.S. military from its adoption in 1906 until 1957, when it started being replaced by 7.62×51mm NATO as the standard U.S. military cartridge. The .30-06 is still common in the 21st century as a popular cartridge for hunting, notably in North America.{{cite web |first=Bryce M. |last=Towsley |url=https://www.americanrifleman.org/content/30-06-springfield-history-performance/ |title=.30-’06 Springfield: History & Performance |website=americanrifleman.org |date=25 February 2024 |access-date= }}{{cite web |first=Joe |last=Engesser |url=https://www.rockislandauction.com/riac-blog/30-06-rifle-americas-caliber |title=The .30-06 Rifle: Chambering America's Caliber |website=rockislandauction.com |date=30 June 2023 |access-date= }}
