RE: A Specific .30-06 Question
I am shooting a 150 grain nosler handload at just over 2900 fps. At 40 yds it rolls a deer. I like it cause it shoots flat, doesn't kick as bad as the 180gr, and tears the deer up.
The larger bullet might be nice for a shoulder shot, bust thru the joint to keep em from running. In my limited experience, the 150 works fine.
