Pre-Fragmented

A long-time concern for personal protection 30-06 ammo has been over penetration with the potential for injury to those farther down range and pre-fragmented rounds are one solid solution. One answer has been hollow-point, thin-jacketed bullets which tend to explode upon impact. A newer answer is pre-fragmented ammo manufactured to similarly disintegrate upon impact. Manufacturers of the newer .30-06 pre-frag ammo have made claims that this disintegration produces multiple fragments adding to the lethality of the ammo. Such claims have not been completely verified but many shooters trust their hunt and in some cases their lives to the rounds.
