The Remington Premier 30-06 Springfield 150 grain load centers on the Swift Scirocco II bonded polymer tip — a projectile engineered for controlled expansion and deep penetration across medium-to-large game. At 2910 fps muzzle velocity and 2821 ft-lbs energy, this 150-grain bullet carries enough momentum to punch through whitetail shoulder, elk vitals, or black bear tissue without separating jacket from core. The 30-06 Springfield cartridge remains the benchmark centerfire hunting round in North America, and this load leverages that legacy with modern bullet construction and consistency you can verify at the bench.
Built for the Box
Each 150-grain Remington Premier projectile starts with a pure copper jacket bonded to a lead core — eliminating the jacket/core separation that causes inconsistent wound channels. The polymer tip initiates expansion on impact, while the progressively thickening jacket resists fragmentation at higher velocities. The secant ogive nose and boat tail base drop drag across the flight arc, yielding a 0.43 G1 ballistic coefficient and a flatter trajectory than traditional cup-and-core designs. Boxer primers seat in reloadable brass cases, so you can work up handloads when factory inventory tightens.

This load sits in the lighter end of the 30-06 spectrum — faster and flatter than 165-grain or 180-grain options, with enough retained weight to anchor deer-sized game inside 300 yards. Pair it with rifles wearing 22-inch or 24-inch barrels to extract the full velocity advertised on the box. Browse our full 30-06 ammo inventory for alternative grain weights and bullet styles.
Safe Handling & Compliance
Federal law requires purchasers to be at least 18 years old for rifle and shotgun ammunition, and at least 21 for handgun ammunition. Ammunition cannot be shipped to certain states, counties, and cities — review our ammunition shipping restrictions before ordering. Store ammunition in a cool, dry location away from heat sources and out of reach of unauthorized users.
- The Four Rules of Firearm Safety apply every time you chamber a round — treat every firearm as loaded, never point at anything you are not willing to destroy, keep your finger off the trigger until sights are on target, and know your target and what lies beyond it.
- Verify current state and local laws governing ammunition purchase, possession, and transport before ordering — some jurisdictions restrict online sales or impose waiting periods.
- This product contains lead, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm (Proposition 65) — wash hands after handling and store away from food preparation areas.
