I have been reloading for 30-06 for a little while now, and I would recommend the Lyman reloading manual, especially if you are just getting into it. It has a wealth of information and it gives information such as which primers and different bullets are recommended for all calibers. I would think that if you are just going to stick to looking for powders at an easy to get to store some pretty common powders would be IMR4831 or IMR4350 or as mentioned before Reloder 19. I have used them all when loading 30-06. I prefer IMR4831. Powder in my area is pretty easy to find now, but I can't speak for your region. Good luck with everything, let us know how your loads turn out and of course, BE SAFE!
