I was wondering if anyone had a load that they'd recommend, using 200 grain Nosler Accubonds, for a 30.06. I have been shooting factory Federal Premium 180 grain Accubonds at the range and have had some good groups out to 300 yards. I purchased some 200 grain Accubonds for a moose hunt I went on last year, but never loaded them. Now, this year I have an elk hunt coming up in October and was thinking about trying the 200's. I've tried shooting factory Federal Nosler Partitions but can't get a good group with them. I was going to try handloading some of them also, so if you have any info on a load for them, that'd be appreciated too. I personally don't handload, but a friend of mine handloads exclusively, so he asked me to find a load for the 200 Accubond and the 180 Partition to try. I thought this would be the place to ask. I'd rather be shooting the 200 grain Accubonds out of a 300 win mag, but all I have is the 06. Thanks a lot.

Pace Maker,
If your friend doesn't have new reloading books with the Accubonds listed as one of the bullets, you can still use the same data for the **same** grain bullets listed. I stress the same grain only. As always, start low and work your way up. Good Luck

have no info on the 30-06 but reload accubonds for 3 other rifles, and one hint or suggestion, all 3 guns that get accubonds, like the lower charge weights! Go with the data for partition in the same weight and start at the bottom, also you may find the accubonds need to be seated a little deeper they are a good bit longer. hope this helps
