Best Uses

Many shooters buy several boxes of this load to practice with a full-weight 180-grain bullet. It gives the same kind of recoil you feel with a heavy hunting load, which builds good habits. The soft point also means it can serve on deer, hogs and black bear where hunting laws allow, once you confirm your zero. Reloaders get Boxer primed brass they can use again. For range days, pair PPU 30-06 180 grain soft point with the 150-grain version to see which weight your rifle groups best.
