Which is more powerful 7.92x57mm Mauser or 30.06?

In all reality, the cartridges are almost even. When both are using heavy bullets (about 200 grains), they tie. when using lighter bullets (150 grains), the 30-06 outclasses the 7.92x57mm because the bullet can move faster and not drop as much. For hunting purposes, I would stick with a 30-06 (Even though I own a 7.92x57mm Rifle) because you have more options with bullet weights.
