[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 134099, member: 8843"] Without starting a argument about using target bullets on deer , I would say the 180gr Nosler Ballistic tip , its got a bc of .500 and enough weight to have plenty of thump at 500yds. Start at at 55grs of either H-4350 or IMR-4350 and work you way up. I haven't run accross a 30-06 that diden't like 4350 with about all bullet from 150-200gr , generaly you can end up around 58grs in most factory guns 60 in some with a little tighter chambers. 55grs sould give you around 2700fps and usualy you can get up to 2900fps which will shoot pretty well out to 500yds. Now if you don't mind shooting match bullets and if you can get them to shoot from you gun the 168-175gr Berger VLDs shoot realy flat when run out around the 3000fps mark. The trouble is generaly that you can seat the bullet out far enough like they want to be shot and still feed from the magazine. [/QUOTE]
