    My 165 load for 3006 falls under the title "DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME". I at one time my pet load was 62gr 760 winchester powder and a cci 250 primer. Speed was 3080spf. 60.8 is max with a cci200 in the Hornady book I have. I would never shoot this load on days with a temp above + 5.

    Do not even consider this.
    Its from the 'Dark Side' of the reloader world.

    Stick to the manuals, if you decide to to get into reloading.

    what was the reason for this load? was it more accurate than a lesser charge?

    Quick question for you here. What is longer distances? What are you doing hunting or target? If you are hunting what game are you after? This may influence what load you should be using.

    I did say "it was" and"DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME". I did give the the max load by the the book.

    It was 20 years ago and I would not do it again.

    Yes you did, I was just reinforcing it.

    Nothing personal.
    If it came off as if it was, my apology's - It was not my intentions.
