Texas State WB Match: Who is Shooting?


Recommended Posts

Oh, I really don't know.    Probably a '03 so I can buy ammo off the shelf.

 

Back 40, you'll want to load your own 30-06 with cast bullets, or buy some loads from someone like Hoodoo Brown at CVV.  It's much more user friendly to run at 1500 - 1800 fps than 2600 fps!

 

There is a good source of cast bullets (Norm Purcella among others) and recipes available for some proven loads.  Try it, you'll like it!

 

For the 30-06, 150 gr cast bullet, 32.5 gr IMR 4064 = 1725 fps.  It's amazingly accurate at these ranges out to 200 yds, maybe even further.  Others have similar or maybe even more accurate loads.
