My standard 30-06 likes H4350 at 56 gr behind a 180 interbond and at 57 gr behind a 165 BTSP. 2800 fps and moa @ 100 yds. Good hunting loads. On another forum, a match shooter gave me his 1000 yd recipe: RL 22 60.4 gr, 190 SMK 2900fps, cloverleaf 3 shots@ 200 yd. I haven't tested it myself yet. BE WARNED; HOT LOADS!! With F-C brass, 91/2 rem primer, and 57 gr h4350 I reached a hot load with a sticky bolt!! However, 56 produced my best group. And thr RL 22 recipe is over the max load. Read your manual and start at the starting loads.
