Just got my new 2023 Hodgdon's Annual Manual. Interesting loads for '06 cased rounds, especially for the old '06. 165gr. top - 3,003. 12 powders over 2,900fps 175gr. top - 2,883. 11 powders over 2,800fps 180gr. top - 2,857. 6 powders over 2,800fps The difference between this ctg. and the 7mm Rem. Mag. is actually smaller than previously thought - over normal hunting ranges. The 7mag appears to hold less than 100fps advantage in most "hunting" bullet weights. With the canister (general public availability) powders available today, the '06 just keeps getting better. |
