I like to take only my 30-06 when I visit my buddy. Rather than haul my 22LR for smaller game, I was wondering if anyone has come up with some unique loads that are somewhat lighter for taking small game like rabbits, squirrels, grouse, etc.
Seems like I read an article some time back about using 110 grain bullet with triple 777 double F black powder substitute. However, I don't want to dirty up the gun that much and would prefer to stick with smokeless. I have done several google searches, but just come up with lighter loads for reduced recoil, typically using 150 grain bullets. What I am trying to come up with is a .22 LR substitute for my 30-06 by reducing velocity on a 110 grain bullet.
I've got all the tools here so any ideas would be appreciated?
