Default RE: 30 06 cartridges

Here are the loads that I use in my savage 111 30-06. They are all handloaded

main deer loads
150gr Hornady IB
150gr Barnes XLC

both using 61grs of H414 (iam pretty sure but will have to double check, having a brain fart right now)
speed is 3000fps at muzzle.
I have them sighted in 2 inches high at 100yrds which puts me close to 7inches low at 300yards.

Ialso have some Hornady SST loaded in 165g forvarmits etc.....

I have hadvery very very good luck with my 150 Hornady IB.and as always the Barnes alway work well.I also used the Barnes last year moose hunting .
