I suspect there isn't a lot of deep development going on by Ammunition manufacturers to develop hyper accurate ammunition for the 30-06 or the 30-30.


If there was.....

I suspect you are correct..as with most things, market dictates the direction of development... Long range shooting competitions are in full force in this area.. SO, that is what is being developed and produced.. I was just commenting to my hunting buddies last weekend how technology has certainly changed things.. I remember back in the day a 300 yard shot was considered on the longish side.. 400 was wwwaaaaaayyyyyy out there... today it's used to warm up for long range..Personally, I feel anything that gets and keeps more people involved in the shooting sports is a good thing. While I greatly enjoy long range "target" shooting, one thing I am very tired of seeing are all the posts on Farcebook bragging about their 900000 yard shot on an elk.. In full agreement with many here.. NOT hunting.. Again, IMHO, true hunting is being missed by many. They will never realize the skill and art it truly is.. MY kids will not be part of that..they will learn to hunt close..rifle and bow.. and also be able to shoot far.. they love shooting...SO, I am a blessed man..

The End..
