Needs more careful editing
First, it is called 6.5 Creedmoor and not Creedmore. Second, the bullet drop of a .30-06 at 400 yards is not sufficient to label this particular cartridge as “rainbow” cartridge at this distance. Perhaps the author uses too weak powder loads. Of course, hunting beyond 400 yards is unethical for 99% of hunters due to their inability to judge correctly variation in wind direction/strength. A .300 Win Mag is a poor recommendation as a “single rifle” choice for most hunters. The .30-06 is a far better “all around”solution. .45-70, for instance, is for short distance hunting when shooting through twigs and brush.
