Baikal 30-06 loads
It seems I will be getting a double '06. Will this gun handle factory ammo well or is it best to load down. I don't have an '06 so have not loaded for one, and I was wondering if someone with one of these guns had a pet load. A good start point.
Thanks

51 grains H4350, 220 grain Hornady round nose, remington 9 1/2 primer.
Works well in mine, most likely could increase the powder charge as pressures seem low but recoil is getting stiff. I estimate velocity at 2,300 fps.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Thanks. That sounds like a good load for this gun.
