Best Uses

The 168-grain E-Tip splits the gap between deer and elk weights. It is a good single load for a hunter who chases both. The high BC helps it carry out to longer ranges. Nosler E-Tip 30-06 168 grain rounds also meet non-lead rules in many hunting areas. Zero before the season, then confirm drop at your longest likely shot. If you want more weight for elk or moose, the 180-grain E-Tip is the step up. Keep boxes from one lot to hold your zero.
