[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 116267, member: 5302"] IMR4064 has been a long time favorite for folks getting best accuracy using 150 to 180 grain bullets in the '06. Heavier ones typically do best with IMR4350. Any powder will produce super-small test groups once in a while when 5 or less shots per group are fired. Shoot at least 15 or 20 shots per test group. The smallest few-shot groups happen only a tiny percentage of the time and are virtually impossible to repeat. For best accuracy, I's seat bullets to just barely touch the lands. This keeps them well centered in the bore prior to firing even with full-length sized cases. They may be a bit long to load from the magazine but accuracy is typically best this way. Seat bullets as long as possible for reliable magazine use; make sure they don't bind at the back and/or front of the magazine. [/QUOTE]
