As Fred noted above, the 147 is for .308 (7.62 X 51.) The cannelure is placed for .308, and will sit a little lower in a 30-06 case.

If you don't crimp, it doesn't matter at all.

I bought some 147 Win recently for my newest reloading project - a stock Garand. On top of 49 gr of Ramshot Tac, they're my best effort so far.
