30-06 shooters Question

I have good groups with 150 grainers using 49.0 grains of IMR 3031, 2900 fps. IMR 4350 works great too at 59.0 to 60.0 grains (full case) at 3000 fps.
 
I talked to Berger yesterday about the 215's and was told it would not be untill late August before the next run
I can wait I just settled for some 200grn.smks which shoot very well out of my '06 took them to 1000 last Saturday hit 16x16" plate consistently after I got dialed in. It will be late August before I have enough empty brass to work up a load with the bergers...
 
My 1 game rifle has now come into play for all my getting'er done up here in Western Canada.

A Old school Ruger M77 Mark II with factory 20" barrel.


I was going too use Frugal priced Semi Round nose Winchester 180gr flat bases out of it with IMR 4350,,, but I test run some Hornady 150gr'ers with IMR 4064 as they shoot nice.

50gr of IMR 4064 pushing 150gr'er at ruffly 2850 ft-per second with Federal cases CCI Bench Rest Primers.

Good for all furry critters up here with in 40 too 300 yards +.

I'll drop back too 125 too 130gr'ers after harvest season. They are for predator control.
