Varget is a very good powder in the .30/06 with 130gn bullets. I prefer it over all others I have tried. 58 grains will get you around 3200fps with the 130 TTSX and closer to 3300fps if you swap with the Speer 130gn HP which most .30/06's simply love when mated with VARGET.

Well I finally got to the range to experiment with Varget. 3,100 with 55.8 and 130gr ttsx. Not sure if I need much more than that, this is my wifes rifle after all.


Wanted: Vintage Remington or Winchester hats, patches, shirts. PM me if you have something.
