06 factory ammo

[PJgunner]

I think the Federal High Energy loads have been discontinued. I still have a patrial box with the 180 gr. TTBC, and frankly, I was not impressed. I wasn't too impressed with the Hornady Light Magnums either. Both loads just barely came up to factory .300 H&H Magnums which is about 200 FPS slower than my M70 shoots the same weight bullet from normal factory ammo. Recoil is fairly stout and accuracy, at least in two of my 30-06 rifles just plain sucked. I didn't bother trying a third rifle. At least, in my rifles that I tried them in, they were a great high priced disappointment.
