Anybody have a recipe for sub-sonic 30-06?? I have heard that Trail-Boss powder is the way to go on this, just not found any info that I truly trust.

    Go to the Hodgdon website http://data.hodgdon.com/cartridge_load.asp

    They have a load for the 30-06 and a 150gr NOS BT at 1061fps.

    I have never used Trailboss on the 06 but I shoot it in a 30wcf with lead bullets a lot. Great load and fun to shoot.

    I shoot a cast 170 gr bullet in mine.
    I load Trail Boss to the level at the base of the bullet.

    Measure and mark it and weigh it.
    There's your charge with Trail Boss.

    I also load the same bullet with 12gr of Unique.

    Works well for when the kids shoot the .30/06.
