GOOD REDUCED LOAD FOR NEAR DUPLICATION OF THE 30-30

35 grains of H4198 over a WLR primer and a 150 grain RN of your choice. Originally developed with a Speer hot Cor RN but a Hornady works just as well.

This load is well under MOA in my Ruger No.1 RSI basically clover leafing at one hundred yards. Actually measured distance with a three hundred foot tape measure.

Why? Good for kids, kicks like a 243 and less than the ol 30-30 due to the heavier average weight of an '06 v a 30-30 carbine. And where I hunt my average shot has been well under 100 yards in the past decade.

And thanks to Seafire for the help on this load. He's the reduced load Yoda smile

Keep your powder dry and stay frosty my friends.
