The Nosler Trophy Grade Long-Range 30-06 Springfield ammunition delivers exceptional accuracy and terminal performance for extended-range hunting applications. This premium factory load combines Nosler's proven AccuBond Long Range bullet technology with match-grade powder charges to achieve consistent velocities and superior downrange energy retention.
What Makes This Different
The AccuBond Long Range bullet features a polymer tip that initiates expansion at lower velocities while maintaining structural integrity at close range. Unlike standard hunting bullets that lose effectiveness beyond 400 yards, this design maintains 60% weight retention and reliable expansion at distances exceeding 500 yards. The boat-tail design and tangent ogive profile reduce drag coefficient by 15% compared to conventional spitzer bullets.
Key Features
- 168-grain AccuBond Long Range spitzer bullet with polymer tip
- Muzzle velocity of 2,710 fps with 2,740 ft-lbs energy
- Retains over 1,500 ft-lbs energy at 400 yards
- Match-grade brass cases with precise neck tension
- Temperature-stable powder for consistent performance
- Boat-tail design with 0.620 ballistic coefficient
- 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (200 total rounds)
Field testing demonstrates sub-MOA accuracy in quality rifles, with many firearms achieving 0.75 MOA groups at 100 yards. The 168-grain weight provides an optimal balance between velocity and sectional density for medium to large game hunting. Weather-resistant primer sealing and case mouth sealant ensure reliable ignition in adverse conditions, while the controlled expansion design creates consistent wound channels across varying impact velocities.
