Common 30-06 Ammo Questions

How was the Name “.30-06 Springfield” Chosen?

The naming of cartridges can become fairly complex, as manufacturers try to brand their products with unique names or numerical distinctions. The .30-06 Springfield (usually called “thirty aught six”) however, is pretty straightforward. The “.30” comes from the fact that the bullet is roughly .3 inches in diameter; .308 inches to be exact. The “06” comes from the fact that the bullet was designed in 1906, and the “Springfield” is in honor of the Springfield Armory, which made the M1903 Springfield rifles, for which the cartridge was developed.

What is the Difference Between the .30-06 Springfield and the .308 Winchester?

While both of these cartridges fire bullets that are exactly .308 inches in diameter, the most noticeable difference between the two is the overall length of the case. The .30-06 Springfield has a case length of 2.494 inches, while .308 Winchester ammunition is slightly smaller, with a case length of 2.15 inches. The military version of the .308 Winchester, developed in the 1950’s, was designed to have a shorter case length. With advancements in propellants, similar velocities were achieved despite the smaller size. When the .308 was developed, the .30-06 was the champion of accurate shooting; today both have been surpassed by other cartridges, but they still maintain excellent accuracy and performance.

How Does the .30-06 Springfield Compare to the .30-30 Winchester?

These are actually two extremely different cartridges. Most notably, the .30-06 Springfield was developed for semiautomatic rifles, while .30-30 Winchester ammo was meant for lever-action rifles. Besides a noticeably different shape, the .30-06 has a longer case, wider neck, and larger case capacity. The result is superior velocities and straighter trajectories for the .30-06 Springfield.

What Can the .30-06 Be Used For?

The cartridge is mainly used for hunting and target shooting. Because of it’s accuracy and straight-line trajectory, the round is a popular choice at target ranges all across the country. For example, the American Eagle 150-grain FMJ-BT from Federal Premium Ammunition, when zeroed in to 100 yards, will only drop 3.3 inches at 200 yards. This makes is a reliable cartridge for distance shooting, but it also maintains reliable energy and speed for hunting. The same bullet at 200 yards is rated for 2,466 feet per second and 2,026 foot-pounds of energy. This makes it perfectly capable of harvesting deer, black bear, and other medium-sized animals.

What Cartridges Should I Choose for Hunting with the .30-06 Springfield?

If you are going to hunt with the .30-06 Springfield, you need to choose a cartridge that is loaded with an expanding bullet, which will deliver larger wound channels for a faster kill. Choose a jacketed hollow point or soft nose bullet for ideal terminal performance. A bullet with a ballistic tip will also give the performance you need. Avoid full metal jacket rounds, as they do not expand upon impact.
