Winchester 30-06 Super-X

30-06 Power-Point Deer Load

Winchester Super-X in .30-06 Springfield loads a 165-grain Power-Point bullet, a soft point built to open up on game rather than pass straight through. Winchester marks the box for deer, antelope and bear, and calls it the legendary whitetail deer cartridge. It suits hunters who want a proven factory load for a bolt-action or semi-auto .30-06 rifle and don't need a premium bonded bullet to fill a tag.

Features

• .30-06 Springfield Caliber — Chambered for one of the most common big game rifle cartridges in North America, firing a .308-inch diameter bullet.
• 165-Grain Bullet — A grain is the standard unit of bullet weight (7,000 to the pound), and 165 sits in the middle of the .30-06 range for a balance of speed and weight.
• Power-Point Soft Point — A copper jacket with an exposed lead tip that mushrooms on impact, which Winchester rates for quick knock-down and deep penetration.
• 2,800 FPS Muzzle Velocity — The bullet leaves the barrel at 2,800 feet per second and still carries 2,051 fps at 300 yards.
• 2,872 Ft-Lbs Muzzle Energy — Energy stays at 1,541 foot-pounds at 300 yards and 1,228 at 400 yards according to the printed ballistics table.
• G1 Ballistic Coefficient 0.341 — Ballistic coefficient measures how well a bullet resists air drag, and this figure supports the flat trajectory shown on the box.
• Flat 200-Yard Zero — Sighted in at 200 yards, the load prints 2.0 inches high at 100 yards and 8.6 inches low at 300.
• Brass Centerfire Case — Each cartridge uses a brass case that hunters who reload can keep after firing.
• 20 Rounds Per Box — Enough to confirm your zero before the season and still carry a full load into the field.
• Made In USA — Loaded and boxed in the United States by Winchester.

Ballistics And Build

Winchester prints the full ballistics table on the back of the box: 2,800 fps at the muzzle, 2,536 at 100 yards, 2,286 at 200 and 1,627 at 500, with drop of 25.6 inches at 400 yards and 53.0 at 500 from a 200-yard zero. The Power-Point design pairs a tapered copper jacket with a soft lead nose, so the bullet expands reliably at typical deer-hunting velocities. Fire it in any rifle chambered for .30-06 Springfield, and check your rifle's barrel marking before loading.
