[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 801506, member: 5302"] Back in the '50's when the .30-06 was "the" high power match rifle, folks loaded Sierra's 180-gr. spitzer boattail bullet over 48 to 49 grains of IMR4064 for best accuracy. That should be a good place to start for any 180 in an '06. 180's in a .308, 43 grains of IMR4064 was equally as good in competition. It still is. While 4350 will give a bit more muzzle velocity at the same pressure, 4064 has proved more accurate with 180's. Ball powders were never all that great for accuracy. [/QUOTE]
