Looking for 100yard load, 30-06, no gas check

[champ0608]

I'm brand new here, and brand new to casting, though I've been reloading for years. I'm looking for a load for 30-06, that can hold the 3" 10 ring on the SR target at 100 yards, without the need to gas check.

I see lots of talk about the 16 grains of 2400 being a great military caliber load, but my understanding is that produces velocities that require a gas check.

What do you guys use that is accurate enough at 100 yards? That also doesn't produce leading. Bonus point for a load using bulky powders that reduce the likelihood of an accidental double-charge

I'm a "keep it ultra simple kind of guy." My mold is dropping bullets that don't need to be resized. Less equipment is good in my world. I don't want to buy a resizer to put checks on if I can get around it.

Is your mold designed for a crimp on gas check , or a plan base ?

Casting and reloading is not ultra simple...

You may have to do some work to get what you want.

By adding the gas check. You'll save more time cleaning out the barrel of leading than you'll use crimping them on., not to mention load development failures. I think a Lee push thru sizer is less than 20 bucks. Other than than try light for caliber boolits (100-130gr) with small amounts of fast powder like 7gr or so of red dot. I use Speer plinker bullets at 110gr with 37gr of H4895. Those shoot well out to 100yds in my Winchester model 70 30-06

By the way the lee push through sizing die come with a bottle of tumble lube , they work fine seating gas checks , and can be easily opened up to size to what you need .

I don't think they do anymore...

That's a shame I probably have a lifetime supply to mix up Bill with , but I always felt that was a bonus .
