Winchester vs Nosler Balistic Tip

Have you thought about trying 150 grain vis. 165/ 168 grain?.

No, and only because I've convinced myself that someday I will hunt something bigger. I know it's not correct to think this way but I've always subscribed to bigger is better. I shoot 3.5" turkey shells, and a 30-06 for this reason. The only time I don't subscribe to bigger is better is with handguns where shots on target are more important to me.

What about a 180 grain bullet? It delivers the most foot pounds on target for the 30-06

Ive got a 30-06 as well, and i shoot 165 gr core lokts threw mine. very accurate and cheap to shoot. i have only taken 1 deer with it, and it was a big doe in 2014 at 230 yards... entry and exit holes were very small though..

 

would like to experiment with the barnes or noslers someday... bought this gun a few years ago before safe act, it came with 6 full boxes of core lokts, a scope, sling and case for 150$ :) so im trying to use up the core lokts first...

I do believe it is legal to order ammo online now, they revised the safe act and lifted that ban, "so im told". I havent tried to order ammo online yet though. I will attempt after the holidays 

I attempted to buy some bullets 3 or 4 months ago and was unable to.  I'll try again and see what happens. Perhaps it has changed since then. Thanks !
