Remington’s UMC line of 30-06 ammo is great for target practice with its 150 grain full metal jacket (FMJ) projectile. This ammo is loaded into reloadable-brass cases that are boxer primed and non-corrosive. While FMJ bullets are typically not thought of for their hunting application the velocity of these rounds combined with the bullet weight delivers enough transfer of energy that it will have no problem taking down wild boar and other smaller game.
This bullet at 150 grains in weight is similar in weight to M2 ball ammo used in M1 Garand rifles. While lots of commercial ammo is loaded a little too hot for the M1 Garand, Remington’s UMC 30-06 ammo falls within similar peak pressure ranges as M2 ball ammo so it shouldn’t cause any excess wear on the operating rod.
Remington ammunition is proudly loaded in Lanoke, Arkansas and this ammo is loaded into reloadable, boxer-primed brass casings.

I have not bought this in bulk, but I do shoot this ammo. At $25.00 a box at the local gun store, this is a bargain. I think it’s accurate. Last Hog I shot was with this ammo and at 127 yds, it hit hard and the animal stayed down. Next time I need 30-06 I will buy this bulk item, the price is just to good.

I purchased this 150gr ammo for my M1 Garand. I am not sure what he powder load it is but it was a tad bit hotter than the Red box American brand with the eagle on it. The rounds cycled flawlessly and the price point was right cheaper than my local stores. Bulk ammo did a great job getting the rounds here in a timely manor. I was very pleased with the product it worked very well. I will be ordering more in future. This is a great source for ammo for WWII rifles I also own No. 4 Lee Enfield and will be ordering some bulk .303 in future.
