Default RE: 30-06 Ammunition Help

ORIGINAL: Folically Challenged

'Tis my understanding that the '06 won't push most cup & core bullets so fast that they'll come apart, so a "standard" 165 to 180 bullet oughta do fine for moose & deer. You can try Corelokts, Power Points, or Hot Cors, & see what your riflelikes best.

I've seen std. 165's loose there cores on bigger animials numerous times, and if 165's are going to be used on moose, i'd go with a premium bullet to get more penetration. OR, go with 180's in a std. bullet...
