I took it on my elk hunt this fall ---------
But I didn't kill an elk. However I have used it on Ibex with total pass through performance with massive internal damage.


Anyone who claims the 30-06 is ineffective has either not tried one, or is unwittingly commenting on their own marksmanship

Never used it but I have used the 150 gr. and 180 gr. bullets including other monolithics and like one would expect, everything works in the 30-06...I have not been a fan of monolithic bullets, with the exception of GS Customs which I have always liked. I had a number of failures in the past with a famous brand, but I'm coming around with the latest generation of monolithics from that outfit..
