Thread: 30-30 handloads work well - on paper anyway

I only did it because quickload suggested I'd get a similar burn rate with less powder and lower pressures.
My 336 has an 18inch barrel.

29gr 2206h. 90% fill. 34797psi. 1972fps. 88% burn

To get the same speed (1974fps) with 2208, I'd have to go with 30gr, 96% fill, 36085psi, 87% burn.
