I'm assuming that you are looking for a load for the Tikka 30-06 you just bought? My Tikka T3 Lite in 25-06 is not picky but it seems to shoot Federal the best.

Well first of all we need to know what caliber your gun is?

I like Hornady myself. But the Federals are good too. Shoot a few diferent loads and see what your rifle likes best.
