Guest lilcrackshot Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Does anybody make factory 55 grain accelerators for 30.06? I don't handload and I was thinking about using these on coyotes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

double_drop Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Re: 55 grain never heard of them for 30 06. I do reload them for my .243 though and they fly 4200 fps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Colorado Bob Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Re: 55 grain Pretty sure Remington does. I've got a couple boxes of 308----so I'm pretty sure they make them in 30/06. I've never shot them---from what I hear they are not real accurate. You may want to look at a factory load with a 125 grain bullet.

Stinger-Hunter Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Re: 55 grain Remington corelok 125 grain are incredibly accurate with 30-06. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Re: 55 grain Think so. Pretty sure someone makes the 55 grain accelerators for the 30 06. I have seen them listed in an old shooters bible. Think it might have been a remington load. Not sure how accurate they are though. Seems someone said the 55 grainers for the 06 are like a sabot.

AJ Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Re: 55 grain Yep, Remington makes them. I do not suggest them though. I have shot them in a bunch of different guns and they shot horribly. The best groups I got was 12" at 100 yards. I recommend going with a 125 gr or using a differnt gun. Cartridge = 30-06 Springfield Remington Part # = R30069 Bullet = 55 gr pointed soft point .22 caliber bullet in .308 cal nylon sabot Muzzle velocity = 4080 fps from a 24" barrel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisherguy Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Re: 55 grain I got a few boxes of the renington accelerators given to me. Let's just say after shooting a few from my 30-06 i know why they were given to me lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slugger Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Re: 55 grain my dad used to shoot them out of his 30/30 when i was a kid, i think i had a better chance at busting milkjugs with a sling shot than he did with that 30/30 at 100 yards. those things shot horribly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
