Default RE: re-loading accureacy

Try several different charge weights with what you have now, start at the min load and work your way up in 1/2 gr increments toward the max load. H4350 is a good powder for the 06.I also like 4064, I4350, H380 and have tinkered a bit with 748 and 760.Are you planning on using this gun for hunting? If so I would suggest focusing your effort on developing a load for the bullet you plan to use for hunting. The load that the fmj's like may not be the load the hunting bullet likes. For my just about everything load I use 165 gr Hornady btsp's pushed by 56.5 gr of I 4350. When I was shooting 150's my load was 57.6 gr of I 4350.
