30-06 Handloads
« on: March 25, 2008, 09:54:14 PM »
I am going to be getting into reloading in the next few weeks for my Savage 114 30-06. I would like to start with these bullets in 168 grain, http://www.nosler.com/index.php?p=3&bullet=1,
Federal #210 Large Rifle primers,
and IMR-4350 powder.

Do you think this would make a decent load or do you have a recipe like this or any other good 30-06 receipes?

4350 is one of the best powders for the 30-06. You won't go wrong with that powder. I prefer Hodgdon (H4350) but either one will work. Probably somewhere between 56 and 58 grains will be your best load.

im a fan of rl-22 and nosler 200 grainers.. the bc and sd of this bullet is awesome. i dont load myself, but have worked with this load for awhile.. it is indeed deadly

168 gr sierra matchkings, and 47 grains of imr 4895 with federal match primers does the trick for me. consistant .75 moa groups out of a winchester modle 70 that has been tweaked some.

Go with H414!!  Smoking fast.  150gr/3000fps from a 22".  Very accurate in several different rifles.
