CKFavorite 30/06 Ackley Improved Loads?
The Nosler Book has a little information, but it seems a little weak. Does anybody have real world loads for the 30/06 Ackley Improved? Thanks!

<Eirik>Use norma 204 powder or similar, in norma or lapua cases or other of same volume. If I remember correctly i use 62grs for max pressure and 2980fps, with a 180grs bullet.
use norma MRP or reloader 22, for a max charge of 65grs.
I have used 67grs of MRP for a velocity of 3060fps. this load was to hot when temp. went up to 20 degrees C ( 70F).
start at least 3-4 grs lower and work up, looking for pressure signs.
