I finally found and purchased a box of 210 grn. ABLR's. I intend to develop a load for my trusty Remington 700 BDL .30-06 for no other reason than it's February and I'M BORED STIFF. (So far, I've never hunted anything larger than whitetails so this is just a "project".) I'll start with IMR 4350 & RL 19 using WLR primers and go from there. Anyone out there have any "pearls of wisdom" to relate?
 
You pretty well have it covered other than maybe try RL22. Looking forward to your results.

Cartridge          : .30-06 Spring.  (SAAMI)
Bullet             : .308, 210, Nosler AccuBond LR 58317 G7
Useable Case Capaci: 55.825 grain H2O = 3.625 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.340 inch = 84.84 mm
Barrel Length      : 22.0 inch = 558.8 mm

Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 62500 psi, or 430 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 110 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.

Frankly, I've been looking for an excuse to buy some RL22 now's the time. I also seem to recall that someone had recommended RL22 for .25-06 bullets heavier than 100grns., if memory serves.

Thanks all and keep 'em coming!
 
Hope you can find it. Alliant powders (any) are non-existent here in Canada at the present. We've been waiting for almost two years. :shock:

That's unbelievable Mike. Are you prevented from coming south and taking it back home?

Pretty much. Canada is not concerned with Canadians bring powder into the country (up to eleven kg per trip). The US is somewhat frightened that Canadians might suddenly invade or something.
 
Yup some how one of the US's biggest trading partners is now a threat according to the Homeland Security Act. That is just a joke, I have been waiting for RL-15 since my Pop was a cowboy :shock:!! or just about as long.
Sure hope we can get some Alliant powder and some Nosler ABLR bullets before spring :evil:!

Blessings,
Dan
 
With the 208g Amax in my 24 inch barrel I got 2604fps using 54g of H4350. The load appeared not to be a hot one and accuracy was quite good.

Was using RP brass and CCI standard primers.
