Tried IMR 4350, and IMR 4064, working up and down with each. 4 to 6 inch groups with all combinations. Suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OJR Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Re: BAR, .30/06, 150 Ballistic Tip, HELP !! Try some Hornady Interbonds! I use the Hornady, 165 grain, Interbonds and 57.0 grains of IMR 4350 and it works great in my Savage. Best 3 shot group I got was just under 1/2" at 100 yards and that was with the bullet seated .050" from the lands. I have not tried the 150 grain bullets in my '06. I use them in my 308.

AJ Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Re: BAR, .30/06, 150 Ballistic Tip, HELP !! How does the gun shoot factory ammo? Have you reloaded for it or any other .30-06 in the past? You may be getting excessive bullet runout due to bad dies or have a bad setup. Have you gotten good performance with 150 gr bullets in this gun before? Possibly it does not like 150 BTs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
