For all you 30-06 owners, what bullet are you using?

[Elk868]

[Cowboyblaster]

Well
A Barnes 175 grainLRX
B ELD - X 178 grain
C GMX 180 grain
D Nosler E-tip 180 grain
E GMX 165 grain
F Norma Bondstrika 180 grain

All the best ( handloaded)

I've been looking forward to trying the ELD Xs in my 30 06 and the build i. Working on 7mmRUM . Ive heard alot of good things about a frein of mine just took an exceptionally nice sheep at 600 yards with the eldx one shot kill animal didnt move 20 feet

168 match kings

 

[cornshank]

My rifles like 180 gr nosler accubonds and imr 4350, deer and elk do not like them .

My Rem 700, 30-06 shoots 165 Interlock BTSP w/ H4831 very well. My brother has an -06 in a Winchester featherweight and his shoots equally as well, just a slight powder variation.

168gr Speer Gold Dot over RL16 and a BR2 in a Norma case. 2842fps. Browning XBolt long range shortened to 22" and a Little Bastard brake screwed on. Boyd's At-One stock bedded and a VX3HD 2.5-8x to point it all. 5/8" groups at 100yds. First time out with it this year:

168 or 178 AMax I have a boatload and they shoot!

 

[5gauss]

Several...one of the best is Hornady 165BT....under1 MOA factory Remington 700....Deer don't like it much....For Elk the .338WM

Worked up some nice loads with 150's using Win760 & H414 - just about 3000 fps. Shot steel way out there with 155 Barnes Match Burners at about 3,000 fps, impressive, some thought I was shooting a .300 WM.

Very nice - impressive! I tried the 200 grain ELD-X for the 30-06, but I did not get good result with my hand loads, However, the 178 grain ELD-X got easily much better ( likely to be my own fault with the 200 grains)
However I am working on the 200 grain ELD-X for my 300 Win Mag.

 

[Adipose]

175gr. Barnes LRX. RL17 @2830 fps

 

[Reelamin]

Too many to list....from 125gr to 250gr. Most unique was some AP in a full canvas bandolier my grandpa gave me with the Mauser 98 when I was 12. Yes I shot it up at rocks and steel plates....fun and looking back kinda dumb and wish I had that ammo and bandolier still.

200.20x Hybrid @ 2740.

Just bought enough of these to give a good try. Care to share the load? I understand about reducing and working up…
