I have been using the sierra 150 Gr. boat tail for years in my 06 and love them. They are good for taking the long shots. and seem to hold up well. They are also very accurate. Good luck

I like the ole "interlock"---180 grain Hornady spire point. I use it for everything----elk, deer, black bear, and antelope. Accurate & deadly. Good Luck---CB

The 150gr Nosler BT was my go to load in the 30-06. It was my "magic load". From now on, the Hornady SST Interbond will be. The 165gr in the 30-06 is the ticket!!! This bullet has the devastating power of the Ballistic Tip, but will stick together if you clip something hard on the way to the vitals. I shot a whitetail buck this year at 60 yards with it loaded hot in my 7mm RUM (139gr @ 3600 fps, my long shot load, go figure..). The bullet clipped the near shoulder, broke two ribs, went off like a time bomb in the chest, and broke three ribs and the far shoulder before lodging under the skin on the far side. The bullet had 80% of its weight, and looked just like the catalogs said it would. I am sold on it.

And it's relatively cheap too!!
