[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2671855, member: 15054"] I used that bullet in my .308 and tried it in the 30-06.. it has a shorter bearing surface than the 168 or the 165GK HP bullet. What I found with the shorter bearing bullets I have shot for tight groups with is that I usually find the best accuracy when pushed at speeds above published load data. The 165 you speak of and the 155 I tried was the same way. In both 30-06 and .308 .. but that 165 was not a top performer at long range in my guns. My lyman 49th states 50gr max for the 165 gr and 47.5 max for a 180 gr,, this is 30-06 I am loading for today. [/QUOTE]
