I am new to 30-06 I am looking for the most accurate and light bullet 110-125 gr
Do I need to crimp my cases? I am using a Savage bolt action. What are some accurate loads using my powders for my .223 Varget H4895 and 748 winchester

best bullets in that weight for me has been 125 gr BT's no need to crimp get a loading manual or 2 or 3 don't go on internet loading data from guys that may or may not know what they hell they are doing

Start with one of the '4350s', I like Hogdon. capt david

There are no magic loads for anything but 748 should give good velocity with the light bullets.

Actually, the twist rate of an -06 is a bit too fast for best accuracy with light bullets so you may be disappointed.

Most loading manuals will provide sufficent data, or use the on-line sites of the powder companies themselves.

I used to get some very good results with the Sierra 110 gr HP and 56.5 gr of IMR-4064. Start low and work up, since your rifle may not digest it as well as mine did. Good luck.
