[QUOTE="BYF, post: 972534, member: 73327"] I have a question on load data for elk. I have a 30.06 weatherby vanguard s2 with a vortex viper scope and bipod. I am planning on loading hornady sst 180gr. I have on hand IMR 4831 powder. I will be loading Winchester brass. I will be starting at 55gr and going to a max load of 56.5gr to see what the best grouping will be with my setup. I do not have a hunt set yet but would like to set this rig up for one in the future. I would like to effectively take one out to 800yds. My question is, is this powder ok or should I look for an alternative? What primer would you recommend? I would be using this setup for mule deer and antelope before I go after an elk. [/QUOTE]
