I don't shoot much 30-06. Last year I made up some loads for deer season, using 150 gr Nosler Partitions. I didn't make notes on the amount of IMR 4350, but I do know that I experimented in .2gr increments till I found the "best" grouping and went with that. Somehow "52.0 grains" sticks in my head.
Sooo, I find the loads, and measure them. They are really long... .1" longer than the Speer manual says they should be. Also the starting load starts at 54 grains... so 52 isn't right.
I can't find a single recipe that seems to match the cartridges I made, but I know I played around a lot last year, and was very careful, having just gotten into it.
Wierd!
I'll have to pull a bullet and measure how much powder is in there. Sadly, I started taking reloading notes after deer season, so guess I'll start my record keeping this year!
