I need data in the 63-64K pressure range for a 24" bbl 30-06 and the Barnes 168TTSX. I am especially interested in these powders: H4350, R16, R17, Big Game and 6.5 Staball. I realize QL may not list these, so I'll take what you got! thank you so very much!!! :)

Cartridge          : .30-06 Spring.  (SAAMI)
Bullet             : .308, 180, Nosler AccuBond 54825
Useable Case Capaci: 58.400 grain H2O = 3.792 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.340 inch = 84.84 mm
Barrel Length      : 24.0 inch = 609.6 mm

Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 63259 psi, or 436 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 112 %
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.
USE ONLY FOR COMPARISON !

2 loads produced a Loading Ratio below user-defined minimum of 90%. These powders have been skipped.

Thanks Doc! I was pleasantly surprised with the great results I got with R17 (both speed and temp stability) in the Kimber 300WSM. I got pretty bummed out about R26 when it bared its teeth at me in warmer temps. I'm going to start out with R17 & H4350 see which one this new Bergara likes! Thanks again sir! :)
 
Nothing to it. Singing at my funeral... Now we can add a soft-shoe routine. :lol:
 
Is the Barnes 175 LRX listed in QL Uncle Mike? 2900fps would be "outstanding" in a 30-06. If not listed, you think I could start out with that 180 NAB R17 data and work up?

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

Thanks again Brother! I was wondering if anyone had data to push the 175LRX to 2900 ( of course, if the rifle likes it, etc) What I like about seeing the pressure/velocity of QL is it gives me, what I feel, is a safe goal. After years of red-lining via of the old method, I "try" to stay away from the 72-74K handloads, ha. I loaded up a batch with R17/168 TTSX last night. Can't hardly wait...:)
 
Often overlooked powder that can produce amazing results in the 30-06.

I suppose I should venture out in other powders for the 06, but 4350 has done so well for me in 165's and above that I never got serious about trying anything else. I've heard Big Game mentioned quite a bit.

I did try RL16 briefly. It didn't do that great with 165's however with 180's accuracy was real close to 4350 with marginally more speed, certainly a good option as an alternative to 4350.
 
Since we have a stupid EU regulation called REACH, some US powders are no longer available here.
I had very good results with Lovex and Reload Swiss. No idea if you can get them. The Lovex works extremely well for me in the 30-06, but I use 150gr bullets

With Big Game powder using Nosler Ballistic Tips in a couple of my 30-06's I got the following:
150gr 58.0grs BG 3100FPS 24" barrel
168gr 55.5grs BG 2980fps 24" barrel 3040fps 28" barrel
180gr 54.5grs BG 2910fps 24" barrel 2980fps 28" barrel

Thanks for the data. I was wondering what primer did you use with these loads?
