ive been turned off from partitions ever since i tired to get them to shoot through my 2506. though they did kill a fair number of deer and one elk through my 270win. the bullet works.

but i somewhere along the line decided that nosler balistic tipps are my go to bullet to hunt deer in all my calibers.

im shooting a 3006 pushn 165gr nos bts and h4350 powder. i did quite abit of research and looked around, what i found was the 3006 bible said to try 57grs of h4350 or imr4350 behind a 165gr bullet.
i found great acuracy with 57grs of h4350 through my 22" barreld ruger. no this load does not shoot as well as my varmit calibers but its way better than minute of deer.

ill probly never load 180s. no reason to with the tough 165gr bullets only way id ever load 180s is if i go to moose or larger game, but then if thats the case ill skipp the 180s and shoot the 220s.

i see in the nosler book that the 308 pushed a 165 at2502 fps with a imr4350 useing 46grs of powder.
