30-06
Classic rifle ammunition
The 30-06 (pronounced "thirty-ought-six") is a rifle cartridge introduced by the U.S. military in 1906—the name indicates .30 caliber and the year of adoption.
It served as the standard American military round through both World Wars and remains popular for hunting large game: The 30-06 is versatile enough for deer and elk alike.
