Reading previous posts many moons ago I basically switched to a 200 grain Nosler partitions in my 3006.

Thanks for your advice and

Thank the 24 hour classifieds for having them priced economically back then.

I think comparing “ heavy for caliber” loads should let the 3006 have a 200 grain versus the 180 grain listed by the OP.

Show class, have pride, and display character. If you do, winning will take care of itself.
