Ballistic tip load for 30/06

[CAJUNBOWHNTR]

Can anyone share some Nosler 150 grain BT load data for the 3006.I have had good luck with the federal factory load and wanted to try reloading some.

Thanks

From Nosler's reloading guide, 5th edition:

150 grain solid base ballistic tip (green)
RL19 (most accurate powder tested)
61.5 grains 2982 fps - Max and most accurate load tested
59.5 grains 2881 fps
57.5 grains 2776 fps

It's not copyright infringment to post these is it<img src=icon_smile_question.gif border=0 align=middle>

go to your local gun shop....usually they have reloading too and pick up a free reloading magazine for IMR, Alliant, and Hodgdon powders.

Any 150 grain load for the .30-06 can be substituted for the 150 grain ballistic tip.

I use the 165gr ballistic tip in both my 30-06's one is a ruger #1 and the other is a ruger 77 I shoot the same load in both rifles with great results on both game and at the range it will print nice tight clover leafs and I have taken deer out to 438yds messured with range finder. My load is IMR 4064 49grs, CCI 200 primer, remington nickel brass 165 gr ballistic tip. this load gets about 2772fps out of the 77 and a little more out of the #1

Thanks for the replies fellas.I have a few manuals but was just looking for some loads that might have proven accurate for you guys.This will be my first go with rifle reloading.I have loaded pistol ammo before so I won't be starting from scratch.Thanks again.
