That's the bullet I fire and was planning on 180 grain thanks for the info
Worked for me using a 168 gr TSX with a MV of 2925fps (24" barrel). That's my story below.

Animals - If you can't eat 'em, wear 'em!
Right tool for the job = .338.
When in doubt, just pin it.
30-06 with a 180 barnes = Death

If your running a 30-06 with a 180 timber wolf, It has to be quality ... partition, accubond,tsx. If you run some kind of soft point, at close range a G bear could soak it up and eat you. Just saying

Just ask anybody who packs a 338... the 30-06 will bounce off a grizzly!
The Grizzlies I have seen shot with a 30 06 seemed to die just like being shot with a big mag
30-06 with a well constructed 168 to 180 placed properly in the animal is as deadly as any.
Their steaks, roasts and burger to me! Tom
