Nosler PTs are super fine bullets. BUT to be honest there is just no real need for them with the .30-06 or any of the other rounds on that case with the possible exception of the .25-06 for deer size game. For black bear maybe if you're in an area with lots of really huge ones.
Standard bullets like the Core-Loct, Hornady, Sierra, Speer, etc. work fine. I personally prefer heavy for caliber bullets and the 180 is about the only one I use in the '06. Have never shot game using it with any other. You can never go wrong using a PT and when going a bit lighter it is even better than the others perhaps but honestly if deer and black bear are all you are hunting it will save you money to use the standard type bullets and use a 180. You'll never have a bullet failure cost you game. If you put it where it belongs you'll have a dead critter to drag out.
