I'm trying to diagnose a rifle's accuracy problems and am attempting to isolate variables. I re-scoped it yesterday to a new VX-II, Burris rings, to eliminate the most obvious possibility (didn't work.) Crown looks OK. It had a hack pillar and glass job when I got it used but the contact looks OK and there is no obvious movement--I'm going to try to re-bed next. So...I'm looking for a 30-06AI load that is the equivalent to the 57g 4350 165 30-06 standard "if this don't work, nothin will" load for the AI. If I can standardize the load and dink with the other variables and get the rifle into 2", then I'll play with different load recipes. If anyone knows of a tried and true load for this caliber, I'd love to hear about it. Also if anyone has a beater M70 RH LA stock they want to sell cheap, let me know as that may be the easiest way to dignose things. Thanks, as always.

IMR-4350 From 53.0 grains to 59.0 grains
Winchester WLR Primer

I'd strongly recomend 58 graims of IMR 4831, with a 180 Nosler BT, Fed 210 Match primers and anybody decents brass. SD's are always in the single digits and is the best shooting load in my Wiseman 24" BBL - Sako of course.

Has anyone tried AA3100 with 180 gr pills in the 30-06 AI?
