currently experimenting with the heavier offerings. Got 220gr but I like the look of the 200gr ballistics. Federal loads a bear claw but I can't find it where I live. Tried the usual places online with no luck. Federal is too busy to respond to an email. Ugh.

anyone know where to find a factory loaded 200gr round for the '06 in Ontario Canada ( or anywhere in Canada for that matter)? Thanks.
 
I saw some Lapua Mega 200 grains on sale from Midway. But I'm sure that doesn't help you
 
looks like a great round. Also comes in 185gr?? Cool. Sadly, I am pretty sure midway does not ship to the great white north.
 
Too heavy of a bullet for the powder capacity of the 30-06 to get reliably expansion at longer ranges.
 
I am thinking it is plenty to 250 yards?
 
For sure it's fine too 300 yds.

HI all, here is a Short update on our America trip, I currently in Houston and have 2 more meetings here before movings North toward Oklahoma, Missouri and Iowa, and from there I will head to Colorado and Idaho,I have been met with great hospitality and friendship, and have met several new and old clients and we are going to book the rest of 2025 season quick and have several dates booked for 2026!
That's a wrap, on our first hunt of this years season.

Hunting conditions are a bit tougher in South Africa during the month of February, but can be just as rewarding if done right.
