Footnote P: Ammunition for 30.06

5/9/13 I purchased a box of 30.06 shells, 180 grain for $ 19.89 at Farm & Fleet in Baraboo. I have quite a stock of 30.06 but want to do some 3-shot groups with several rifles, so I will be depleting some.

In the course of doing some shooting @ 100-yds with 30.06, I shot up 6 150-grain and 3 180-grain studying some 3-shot groups.

My supply of 30.06 Springfield is:

          150-grain         3 boxes + 11 rounds

          180-grain         2 boxes + 19 rounds

           130 rounds in all.  I plan to accumulate another new box when I notice a good price or when I
                  begin to think about shooting some more groups with a different rifle.
