Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles 30-06 150 gr Partition?

I picked up a pound of Superperformance to load under these bullets in my 30-06 but the load data doesn't actually show any real advantage to using 5-6 more grains of powder to get less than 50 fps more than I can get with one of the 4350 variants. Does seem to give the 180's a bit more steam though.

10-4 Palidun, I'd stick to the 4350's, all bets are off when I get these 150's shot up, RL-22 under a 200 gr Partition for 2700 fps is where I'll eventually be headed, then I won't have to start a thread like this one ;]

Gunner, if you have any 4064 laying around, it might be worth giving it a try with those 150's...

I've heard of the accuracy of the 4064 with 150's in the '06, had a couple cans around here forever, but gave it to a neighbor that, IIRC was working up loads for a 243 Winchester.

That 60 gr charge of H-4350 is a clean burning sob, 3080 fps don't hurt either ;]

You shouldn't have any problem with it bud. I used 150gr and then 165gr Core Lokts for many years until I used Federal Fusion. I've shot them from every angle and only had two that didn't exit.

I appreciate that Tzone, now if the 'smith would hurry up with the checkering re-cut.

I installed the Talley rings to give me something to look through while chronoing, don't think I can shoot very good groups that way though. lol
