Where do you stop with your /06

It seems some countries do have restrictions regarding cartridges that are or were military but never thought the 30-06 was one. 303 British, 7.62x54R 6mm Lee Enfield 7x57 mm 8mm Mauser etc are some that have long been sporting rounds. Was it the .475 caliber that received such scrunty so the .476 was created to replace it?
Nonsense always seems to prevail over common sense.
 
This article URL below says the 450 was banned by England in 1905 for India and Sudan. The new 303 cartridge for the Sudan as well.
I am not vouching for the article but it seems to match.
It says Holland and Holland replaced the 450 with the 500/465.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
