[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 3318720, member: 27991"] [ATTACH]151966[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]151967[/ATTACH] Grandson wanted a .30-06, for Christmas. Tried to talk him into different calibers, but he wouldn't budge. He got him the .30-06, it came with a box of 180gr Hog Buster. He fired 1 round and wouldn't touch the rifle again. I loaded some 115gr PC with 16.9 gr Trail Boss. Gives 2500-2600 fps. Simulates a mid-range .25-06 and very mild recoil and QUIET. He loves it. Loaded same bullet and Trail Boss in .30-30, for 2200-2300fps, for younger grandson. Boys shoot both loads/rifles into 1", 5 shot, 50 yrs groups. Max loads are not always best or even necessary.
