30-06 Springfield Ammo: More Information
.30-06 Springfield ammo was designed for use by long-range shooters in the military. The original round was capped with a 150 grain flat-base jacketed bullet that was replaced soon thereafter with a boat-tail bullet allowing for better stability at long distances. Shooters these days still enjoy 30-06 for use in their M1 Garand rifles because of the round’s relatively light recoil.
The .30-06 rounds of today come in a wide variety of bullet weights, ranging from about 110 grain to 220 grain with some sabot rounds even lighter. These standard projectiles offer shooters good muzzle velocities in the area of 2,400 feet per second for the heavier rounds to about 3,500 feet per second for the lightest 110 grain bullets. These rounds are incredibly powerful, offering riflemen muzzle energy that is typically just shy of the 3,000 foot-pound mark.
For range use, you’ll likely want to rely upon a full metal jacket (FMJ) bullet. For hunting, you should seek out more specialized projectiles with soft tips or expanding bullets, like Hornady’s SST or Remington Core-Lokt.
