I loaded my 06 up to 2900 fps with 168gr BSTs and it touches holes at 100 yards. I handload for 6 center firerifles right now 1 30-06, 2 .223s, 2 7X57 mausers, and a 300 WSM. All of these rifles shoot under 1 inch at 100 yards and most shoot about .5 inches. My 06 and .223 touch holes at 100 yards. My 300 WSM is shooting about .6 inches.

All of them shoot better groups at the max loads.
