Also, for general purposes, could I get a basic power ranking of the most popular hunting cartridges? For instance, I know .30-06 is mostly equal to .308 but can be loaded a bit heavier, and that .270 Win is weaker than those but overpowers .243. My trouble is figuring out where rounds like 7mm (either one), 22-250, and 300 WSM fit.

Just look at a list of cartridges by caliber. Then determine standard bullet weight and standard velocity. That's how you figure a hierarchy of rounds.
There is lots of overlap between cartridges. Many cartridges are ballistic twins.
