[QUOTE="Hastings, post: 1062638, member: 85667"] Thanks, I'll look there. My most accurate loads are 56 grains of IMR 4350, Win LR primers, and Lapua brass out of my Weatherby Vanguard SS with 24" barrel and 49 grains of IMR 4064, CCI primers, and RP brass out of my 1980 vintage Rem. 700 classic which has been re-barreled with a 25" Douglas. I know these powder charges seem a little light but that is all these rifles want if I don't want to experience high pressure signs in hot weather. They are accurate and produce decent velocity with these loads. I always heard IMR 4350 is the go to powder for .30-06 but my Rem. 700 without question prefers the IMR4064. I plan to make a wolf hunt as soon as I can talk my brother in law into going with me. I own cattle and I think it was a crazy idea to turn a bunch of killer dogs (wolves) loose on livestock and game animals. Down here in Louisiana you can't raise cattle without a good rifle. I can imagine the anxiety of having wolves mixed in with domestic cattle. [/QUOTE]
