The original design (the M1 garand and M1 carbine) was the only 30-06 i believe. The m14 was designed to be able to accept the 7.62 nato cartridges which became the 308Win when introduced to the public market.
The M1A that Springfield makes for consumer market is available in a 308 or 6.5 Creedmoor
