    Looking at .308" .30-caliber bullets? I'd have to assume so.

    Depending on style and weight, they are usable in most cartridges of .30-caliber, yes. Some are more usable in one than another.
    I may be a bit crazy - but I didn't drive myself.

    yes you assume right

    I wanted to make sure they would work for my 06 and 30-30

    Probably. Ideally, bullets for your 30-30 will have a flat tip. The cannelure may not be in the right place to work well in both the 30-30 and the 30-06, and bullets meant for the 30-30 will be far too soft for top velocity in a 30-06 as well. But the diameter is right for both.
