you can run a 200 grain bullet at 2900+ fps... and a 220 grainer in the 2800 to 2850 fps range.

That's really fast for those bullet weights in the 30-06.

You aren't kidding. I wonder what case to get that much powder in to get those speeds.


Yep, Seafire and i talked about this 10 years ago, i took the challenge, with a black powder drop tube and new WW brass i was able to easily get 2800 fps with 200gr partitions from my old pre64 '06 at 3.330 COL with excellent accuracy, 2800 fps more than satisfied my curiosity LOL! primers and bolt lift was great, in fact, in a separate test i loaded one stick of brass 5 times, all good.


Trump Won!
