My way of thinking is this bullet is better suited to the 300 magnums. With a -06 or a 308 I would use either a 130/150 TTSX or If you can get them to shoot the 150 Etip.

The 168 ttsx in 06 will be traveling faster past 400 yards than the 150 gr. Never looked up the 130. I don’t plan on shooting elk super long range. But you just never know, and these monos work better going faster.
I practice as limit my self to 600 yards.
Also I think the 168s have lower minimum velocity requirements to open.

All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.
