I'm bringing my 30/06 to TX for hog hunting. I loaded some 150 gr CT partition over 48,49,50 and 51 gr of 4064. The 48 seemed weak and grouped 2 3/4". The rest 1 5/8", 2 1/4" and 1 1/2" respectively. It was windy so don't know if that affect the group size or not and my rest wasn't that great but was fairly staedy.. The 51 gr showed some promise as two of the three bullets were touching and the third opened it up to 1 1/2". The Nosler manual lists 52 gr as the max so I'm going to load up some at 51, 51.5 and 52 gr and go back tomorrow. If they slow down enough I'd like to shoot for the head otherwise the chest cavity so I want to be comfortable with the load.
