Best Uses

Shoot enough of this box to be sure of your zero and your holds at longer range. A heavy bonded bullet is what many hunters want for elk and moose, where shots may hit heavy shoulder bone. The polymer tip keeps the trajectory flatter than a round-nose bullet of the same weight. It also suits big mule deer and bear. Keep a few rounds in a separate pouch to check zero after a long drive or a flight. Federal Premium 30-06 180 grain bonded tip is a strong choice for your biggest hunt of the year.

FAQ

Is 180 grain 30-06 good for moose?
Yes. A heavy bonded bullet in 30-06 is a common moose choice. Keep the range moderate and aim for the vitals behind the shoulder.

What does bonded mean on a bullet?
Bonded means the lead core is fused to the copper jacket. That helps the bullet keep its weight as it expands and penetrates.

How far can a 30-06 shoot accurately?
Many hunters keep 30-06 shots under 400 yards. With practice and a good optic, a skilled shooter can go further. Know your drops first.

Does nickel-plated brass matter?
Nickel plating resists tarnish and corrosion, which helps in wet hunting weather. It does not change how the bullet flies.
