IMO the 30-06 is more versatile. If you don't do your own reloading (like me) then you have to depend upon factory loads. The 30-06 offers rounds with bullets ranging from 125 gr up to 220 gr. Use the 125/150 gr stuff for deer and the 180 gr stuff for bigger game. The 30-06 ammo is so much cheaper and more available then 7mm Mag rounds for the most part. I never see 7mm stuff on sale (not that it doesn't go on sale somewhere) but I always see 30-06 ammo on sale.
 
I've hunted moose all my life and love it! I've shot them with a 303, 30-30, 270, 308, a few 30-06, 7 MM mag, and 300 Mag. Personally if I had to make a choice on my favorite one it would be my 7 MM mag. I've shot moose at 400 yards with this rifle, and it always did the job!
