Description

The Remington Premier Long Range .30-06 Springfield 172gr Speer Impact load (Remington part no. R21344) is made for hunters who take shots beyond ordinary hunting distances.

Remington lists the usage as big game, which makes it a fit for a hunter who wants one load for both the stand and the longer shot. The box holds 20 rounds.
