    Above are my brothers shooting some long range plates with my 1903 30-06.
    60 grains of AR2209 pushes a 150 gr boatail out of this rifle at 3000 fps.

    Good cartridge that will deal to anything in NZ. Generally feeds quite nicely too, being long and tapered/small neck.

    More versatile than .270 due to bullet choice.
    Recoil can be hard but anything can be gotten used to with practise or a suppressor.

    Popular too, pretty much any sports shop will usually have a packet of rounds on the shelf.

    So yeah I'm a fan.
