    I got 3050fps with H4350 and a 150 grain bullet in a 24 inch barrel, and I got 3200fps with a Nosler BT 125grain and IMR4895 in a 22 inch barrel. That's the fastest for me, and neither were over max loads. I think I would try RE19 if I was a speed freak; which I'm not really.

    I'm sure a 30 06 will make them go plenty fast.

    Based on the examples above, probably 50fps faster than a 308.

    I've got a barrel chambered in my 30-06 imp & another shorter one off the Titanium that is 30-06ai.

    I'm sure I can get it on an action etc

    Even at 24" it goes very well

    That is a beauty.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
