You rifle hunters out there may want posting pet loads for your given rifles, maybe just on request I realize how many different loads there are. And all rifles have a mind of their own. Just a thought Lou Only half Caps ;D

;)I have a nice load for varmits in my .243 Savage weather warrior. It is 46 grs. of IMR-4350 with a 70 grain BT and a WW case and mag primer. This load shoots into 1 inch at 200 yards and makes for a very nice rifle to walk around with. No special pains taken to produce this ammo just full length size and load. I do set the bullet out just short of the lands and so it will fit in the magazine. I don't know the velocity but it is pretty good.

Doug, the 7/mm Mag"s sure like 4350 I also use it in my Remington 700, 63 grains 154 Hornady spire point with a cci 250 primer. Have had the rifle for 20 or so years, I had contemplated rebarreling it but it still shoots good, Don't use it thet much anymore since ML's. ;D Lou

ourway7, I guess I use more IMR-4350 than any other powder reloading ammo. I also use quite a bit of IMR-4831 also. ;D 4350 is good for a lot of calibers carrying heavy bullets from the .243 all the way up to the .460 WBY MAG. It runs good with the .270, .280. 30-06 and more than I can think of. Like I said usually with the heavier bullets in that caliber. 4831 is a slower powder which is better suited with heavy bullets in calibers like the .25-06, .264 and so on.
