I second the vote for RL 22.

Reloder 22 or Reloder 22 or Reloder 22! LoL

I find it to be a very accurate with high velocities, 2800 fps+ out of a 22" barrel, with low chamber pressures.

I have also found that loads developed at 20c (70f) only loose about 100 fps when fired in freezing, or slightly below, temps. (Or in other word almost identical losses to what I see in the same cartridge using H4831)

Back when I reloaded my 30-06, I liked H-4831 and Reloder 22 for the 165 and 180 gr bullets. Got good results with the 150's with just about everything, IMR-4895, Reloder 15, Accurate 2700, and IMR-4064.

I've mainly shot 150s and 165s out of my 06s for the past few years. I did try some 180 Hdy SPILs out w/ some H380 awhile back but, they were mainly for short range work.



I have a couple of boxes of .308 180 NBTs on hand and I was wondering what you guys are pushing your 180 pills w/ in the ole' 06'?



I'm thinking of going the H4831SC route but, I've got R22, R19, IMR4350, H380, and H4895 on hand for this cart. as well. I believe they'll all work w/ the 180s but, I wanted to cut to the chase and see what you all have been lucky w/.



Thanks,



Reloader
