Nosler
Nosler, Inc., founded in 1948 by John Nosler, is a well-known American manufacturer specializing in high-performance bullets, brass, ammunition, and semi-custom rifles. The company's inception is rooted in a personal hunting experience where John Nosler, while hunting moose in British Columbia, found that his bullets failed to perform adequately, inspiring him to design a more reliable projectile. This led to the creation of Nosler's original Partition bullet, which featured a dual-core design with a partitioned jacket to ensure controlled expansion and deep penetration, setting a high standard in bullet performance. Over the decades, Nosler has expanded its product line significantly, maintaining a reputation for innovation and quality. Nosler's bullet product range includes several notable lines designed to meet various hunting and shooting needs. The Partition remains a cornerstone, renowned for its ability to combine rapid expansion with deep penetration. The Ballistic Tip line is another popular choice, designed for accuracy and rapid expansion, making it ideal for varmint and game hunting. For long-range precision, the AccuBond series offers a bonded-core bullet that combines high ballistic coefficients with controlled expansion and deep penetration. The E-Tip line is Nosler's lead-free option, featuring an all-copper construction to meet environmental regulations without sacrificing performance. The company also offers the Varmageddon series, specifically designed for varmint hunters seeking high accuracy and explosive performance upon impact. For competitive shooters, the Custom Competition line provides match-grade accuracy and consistency. The RDF (Reduced Drag Factor) bullets are engineered for long-range shooting, offering minimal drag and high ballistic coefficients. Nosler's recent innovations include the AccuBond Long Range (ABLR) bullets, which cater to hunters needing reliable performance at extended distances, maintaining controlled expansion at both high and low velocities. Nosler’s commitment to quality and performance has established the company as a trusted name among hunters, shooters, and reloaders. With a rich history of innovation and a diverse product range, Nosler continues to be a leader in the ammunition industry, delivering products that meet the evolving needs of its customers.

The .30-06 Springfield cartridge, commonly referred to as the “Thirty-aught-six”, is one of the most widely used and longest serving rounds in U.S. military history since its inception in 1906. Developed during the early 1900s as a replacement for the shorter .30-03 round and intended to be a service rifle cartridge for the United States Army and Marine Corps, it has since gone on to become one of America's most popular cartridges due to its combination of power, accuracy, and reliability.Though originally developed specifically for use in military arms such as the M1903 Springfield and M1 Garand rifles, it is also suitable for hunting applications with effective ranges that can reach up to 800 yards - making it capable of taking down large game animals like deer and elk with ease. The .30-06 also offers excellent accuracy potential from quality rifles equipped with optics, allowing shooters to make difficult shots even in challenging conditions.Today, .30-06 ammunition remains readily available from several major manufacturers in various bullet weights ranging from 110 grains all the way up to 180 grains - allowing shooters to tailor their loadouts depending on the application at hand from target shooting or hunting small game all the way up to large North American game animals such as bear or moose.
