I always find it amazing how much a difference calibre makes in how powders perform. 2209 is my favourite for the 270. But I had to double check your figures as It seems way overloaded in...

buzzman if you had a 20” 308 and a 20” 30/06 side by side (and loaded to equal pressure) the 30/06 will win the velocity contest every day. It won’t win an efficiency competition at short lengths,...

I use 62 grains of 2209 and get 2980fps from a 22 inch barrel, for one inch groups with a 150 grain interlock. Been using it for years.

165 to 180gn projectiles is where the 30/06 does its best work. for the short barrel forget the 30/06 and go for the 308 IMO. 30/06 would be better served with a 22" barrel.

The 06 can give you 100 to 150 fps more in any bullet weight than a 308. If you're serious about 400 yds, I think there's really no advantage to be had with the 06. In either case 165 gr would...
