Hey guys, I’d like some input-
I am a new reloader try to decide where to start when it comes to picking a bullet(s) for load development in my .30-06. Monolithics’s because California.
I will be using the rifle for anything from antelope-elk and am trying to figure out if I should work up one load to “rule them all” or have a couple different loads depend on the size of game I’m hunting.
I anticipate most will say one heavy for caliber bullet but I’ve also read the lighter for caliber monolithic bullets perform well with the greater velocities they can be pushed.
My inclination was a lighter bullet for deer/antelope and heavier for bullet for elk/bear/moose.
What are your thoughts?
