The .30-06 JDJ is an improved form of the .30-06 Springfield cartridge designed for use in the Thompson Center Arms Encore platform. The body taper of the parent cartridge has been almost entirely eliminated in the JDJ design.
The cartridge delivers in excess of 1,222 ft/s (372 m/s) velocity to a 60 grain (3.9 gram) proprietary bullet from Hornady. This generates 199 ft⋅lbf (270 J) of energy from the 2.5" Guardian barrel (1453 ft/s & 287 ft⋅lbf (389 J) from a 4" test barrel).
