20 Rounds of 165gr SPBT 30-06 Springfield Ammo by Hornady

”Accurate. Deadly. Dependable.” Those words are emblazoned across every box of Hornady ammunition, and they reflect the goals of Hornady’s founder, Joyce Hornady, who coined the phrase “ten bullets through one hole.” When Joyce Hornady founded the venerable company back in 1949 he simply wanted to make high quality ammunition that would deliver the kind of superior performance shooters were looking for and largely unable to find. Not only did he succeed in that, he outdid himself. Today Hornady is widely known for their outstanding ammunition, and these .30-06 rounds are yet another example of their excellence.

At 165 grain these are pretty lightweight rounds, so they’re going to zip towards your target with even greater speed. These are BTSP – Boat Tail Soft Point – rounds and expand on impact to create a catastrophic wound track. Their BT makes them good for long-range shots because it helps them resist cross-winds and maintain a balanced trajectory. These rounds have the following ballistics:

• Muzzle velocity: 2800 feet per second
• 100-yard velocity: 2591 feet per second
• 200-yard velocity: 2392 feet per second
• 300-yard velocity: 2202 feet per second
• 400-yard velocity: 2020 feet per second
• 500-yard velocity: 1848 feet per second
• Muzzle energy: 2872 foot-pounds
• 100-yard energy: 2460 foot-pounds
• 200-yard energy: 2096 foot-pounds
• 300-yard energy: 1776 foot-pounds
• 400-yard energy: 1495 foot-pounds
• 500-yard energy: 1251 foot-pounds

They also have the following results from a 24” test barrel:

• H.I.T.S. # (100 yard value): 1060
• Ballistic coefficient (G1): .435
• Sectional density: .248
