I've been using extruded powders for years mainly IMR4064, H4895, and RL15 for most of my cartridges. Recently another reloader recommended ball powders to me, he stated that I'll like how easily it flows through the powder measure. I bought some H380 to reload some 8mm-06 rounds to try this...

I posted a similar thread in the Art of The Rifle forum, I was wanting to hear some stories of what people have taken with the good ol .30-06. I guess I posted in the wrong forum first because I haven't got any stories and my subject went off in a whole new tangent. I told the story of my High...

I keep reading that the .30-06 will take everything in the lower 48 States and you should go the the Magnums if you want to hunt anything larger. My question is how much big game and dangerours game has been taken with the .30-06 now that the cartridge is approaching its centenial year. Does...
