I've killed moose with 180gr sp federal, 168gr TTsx, 190 hornady BTSP, 150gr TSX, None killed the moose any better than others!! Any 180gr bullet shot out of an '06, from a reasonable distance, into vital will kill a moose, elk, deer, bear!!! I'd look for a bullet that shoots well from your '06, over a fancy premium bullet. Saying this, I do like monolithics, and bonded bullets, the technology is there, why not use it? Moosin
