What is everyone's favorite factory (non-handload) load for whitetails in a 30-06? I know to pick which one shoots the best; I'm just curious to see what has performed the best on whitetails for you in .30-06.
150 gr. Remington Core-lokt. Any style of bullet point will do.
I have yet to seen any 150 grain soft-point that would not give 100% penetration on a Whitetail deer. If they are soft-points, they all will expand. Therefore, it is not logically an issue of "performance" on Whitetails, it needs just be an issue of accuracy. In short, if one lined up 100 deer for each factory round offered, and shot them to see which "performed best", there would be hundreds of dead dear lying there and still no one would know...but it is fun to speculate about isn't it?I'm just curious to see what has performed the best on whitetails for you in .30-06.
Buy a box of 150 grain Remington Corelokts, a box of 150 grain Federal (regular blue box soft points) and a box of 150 grain Winchester regular soft points.
Go to the range and see which one your rifle prefers for accuracy. That is the one you should buy from then on. Oh, you might also try a box of Federal Fusion 150 grain.
