My favorite has been the 165 grain Nosler ballistic tip at about 2,800 fps. Again, lots of dead bulls and they go right down with no fuss or muss. Never had one blow up, or anything close to it. I have recovered half a dozen or so under the offside hide, perfectly mushroomed.
I've shot a couple of others with the 165 grain partitions and they exit every time, but leave really skimpy wound channels and caliber sized exit holes. You don't need premiums for the .30-06. It is easy on bullets. Flinch
Hey Flinch,
I bought a bunch of 168 gr NBT seconds. Do you see much of a difference between the 165 gr and 168 gr?
What difference do you see if you push them faster, say 2900 ft/sec?
Thanks,
P
