Default RE: Bullets for 30-06

For 40 years i have used the 150 grain Sierra Game King and Pro-Hunter bullets in my .30-06 guns: They used to be called the Sierra BTSP and something else.i load them pretty hot, about 3,000 fps. They always exit when the deer is hit behind the shoulder. Sometimes the inside of the deer will look like it was hit with several heavy shot around the exit hole, these are bullet fragments.Have killed over 200 deer with those two 150 grain bullets: Over 90 percent of the animals were DRT.

Have experimented withnearly allof the so-called "premium bullets" but the accuracy that i demand was not there. Sierra bullets work for me and i will always use them.
