If unsure of what to load, just do the standard loads.

A 148 or 158 lead bullet and maybe a slow 140 XTP or 158 XTP
are pretty cheap to buy in most areas.

With the 30-06, a cheap Military Ball 147-150 or any factory 150gr
bullet will be your lowest cost for a jacketed bullet, in most cases.
A 4064 or 4895 powder will do a lot of loads as well as the old
best beginner powder of all......... any 4831 powder.

A lot of reading is needed for the short cased, 9mm.
It can have high pressures if data and OAL is not followed correctly.

Safe loading.
