m2 ball
The 30-06 Springfield cartridge (pronounced "thirty-ought-six" IPA: [ˈθɝɾi ɔt sɪks]), 7.62×63mm in metric notation and called "30 Gov't '06" by Winchester, was introduced to the United States Army in 1906 and later standardized; it remained in use until the late 1970s. The "30" refers to the caliber of the bullet in inches. The "06" refers to the year the cartridge was adopted, 1906. It replaced the 30-03, 6mm Lee Navy, and 30-40 Krag cartridges. The 30-06 remained the U.S. Army's primary rifle and machine gun cartridge for nearly 50 years before being replaced by the 7.62×51mm NATO and 5.56×45mm NATO, both of which remain in current U.S. and NATO service. It remains a very popular sporting round, with ammunition produced by all major manufacturers.
Does anyone have a link to a ballistics chart for the 547 yard (500m) zero for the M1903 Springfield rifle? I believe this zero was achieved using M1 Ball ammo. What is the POI of M1 at 100/200/300 etc?
In WWII there were many M1903s issued to troops (and esp. in the Pacific) I assume w/ M2...

This is WW2 ammo. It is corrosive if you plan on shooting it. No problem if you clean your rifle afterwards. Typical that the bullet tips are poking out of bottom from storage. I have them wrapped in cling film for protection.
$25 per box.

This is not a 'For Sale' ad, I'm only looking for information.

If you're anything like me (and I know that I am) you get a certain appreciation out of trying to duplicate or clone and already existing load. Some may call it a fool's errand, I call it entertainment. One such load I have set out to clone is the 30-06, M2 Ball, for my...

Looking to sell some Turkish MKE M2 ball surplus. The headstamp on most of these rounds seems to be MKE 63. I’m looking to sell these at .80 a round. But if you take all 120 rounds I’d let them go for $85. Located in Seattle and unfortunately unable to ship
Looking to buy some m2 ball off of someone local to Seattle in the $1 per round range for about 150 rounds. Non corrosive preferred. Similarly loaded 30-06 is fine too.
