I'm sorry the 48 grain load was still too much. I wish the chrono had reported correctly. John Barsness got just under 2700 with that load if I remember correctly. (I got it out of his loading for a Garand article.) So you may be looking for something closer to 2500 to get the recoil down enough.
44 grains under a 150 gives just under 2700 from my 300 Savage. I believe it will give less than that in the larger 30-06 case.
