Default RE: 30/06 bullets for elk

Of the ones mentioned, I would suggest the trophy bear claws or partitions. I used hornady interlock after a few frustrating session on the range with other factory ammo & limited selection available. I ended up taking a 5x5 last week with my 7 rem mag, the bullet performed very well and held together nicely, the bull went down within 50 yards of the shot. A 180 grain interlock in hornady custom ammo would be another option. Federal Premiums also load 180 gr barnes x for the 06, which would be another solid choice.

Good luck!
