Best Uses

Use one box to zero and check your holds at 200 and 300 yards, then carry the rest in the field. The pointed nose makes this load a better fit for open country than a round-nose bullet. The 180-grain weight gives deep penetration on big game, and the Core-Lokt design keeps the core and jacket together. It fits hunters who want one load for elk camp and the late deer season. Pair the Remington Core-Lokt 30-06 180 grain pointed soft point with a solid rest and plenty of practice, and you will know your drops before opening day.

FAQ

What does PSP mean on ammo?
PSP stands for pointed soft point. The bullet has exposed lead at the tip like any soft point, but the nose is shaped to a point so it flies with less drag.

How far can a 30-06 shoot accurately?
Many hunters keep 30-06 shots inside 300 to 400 yards. The real limit is your rifle, your optic and your skill. Practice at the distances you plan to hunt before you take the shot.

Is 30-06 long action?
Yes. The 30-06 Springfield needs a long action because of its case length. Short-action rifles are built for shorter rounds such as the 308 Winchester.

How much recoil does a 30-06 have?
Recoil depends on bullet weight, powder charge and rifle weight. A 180-grain load kicks more than a 150-grain load in the same rifle. A good recoil pad and proper fit help a lot.
