.30-06
Congratulations on your reprieve from the Grim Reaper, brother.
Eventually we may get to have some friendly .30-30 competition once I figure out how to make the cartridges right.
I jumped the gun, oops, on the sight situation for the 464. I figured if the dog won't hunt, I was gonna strip it of the money I had in a scope and rings. I bought a Skinner pep and set the scope and rings aside. Then I found the pics of the bullseyes and the load data...now I am stuck with memories...
O well, a few rounds of competition may spark my interest in target shooting. What do ya need to know about the cartridges? Anything I can help with? My best loads were factory, and my homemade loads that were really good were loaded with IMR 4198 and H4895. The 170 gr didn't even place, so I have no pics. I used Hornady flat point 150's with the H4895, and some Xtreme 150 plated with the IMR4198. Always full length resize and check OAL with a Wilson Headspace gauge. Here also is a forum address where the discussion is about the 3030. I did not realize we have such a tough cartridge to load for.
