Best 30-06 Ammunition? — 2 Comments

  1. I think you have to consider another aspect for hunting,another dimension- your rifle! I have found that every gun I have owned has it’s appetite for ammo. For example, one gun fires everything, another gun has a preference for 130 grain cheaply ammo, other guns need a 165 grain bullet. The idea here is the fun of finding that perfect round- that sweet round that sails exactly where you want it. Some of us find that sweetness only rarely,but the pursuit of perfection is part of my hunting experience with my sometime stubborn friend- my rifle.

    The marriage of your rifle and a scope is another dimension of your hunting experience. Like half of all marriage , a scoop will fail( mounts as well). Perfection is a must here.

    Well what is left? Skill and your natural born instincts. Here I can’ t help you. But, with the perfect hunting rig, you have a key that unlocks what you are made of, what your we’re borne with- the instinct the hunt and the joy in rekindling that wonderfully drive to be the perfect hunter
    Like our distant relatives and what you will become if you hunt long enough.

    • Oh believe me: I have spent more than the past decade running down that bunny hole. When you’re into reloading, you’ve got so many variables to exploit– powder, bullet, seating depth, primer. I have one rifle that just will not take 150 grain, and won’t shoot 165 grain accurately unless I run 5 rounds through it to dirty up the barrel and then not clean it until after season. If I do that, it’s a tack driver. It took two years and I don’t know how many loads to find that out– probably why that rifle was up for sale in the first place.

      Yep! I hear ya, brother. Thanks for coming around. Thanks for sharing.
