    Just had almost 10lbs of this powder given to me , but never used it before . I always used 4831 ,4350 , or 4064 ( all IMR ) Anyone ever use it / what can I use it for ?
    I know I can look it up in the reloading manuals , but thought I could get some input from someone that loads with it or has loaded it in the past .
    Most of my loadings are from 243 up to 338 win mag , and anything in between for Pa. black bear and Deer hunting .


    Just did a search in this forum , and found that most folks use it for their 223's , if thats the case maybe I'll have a use for it after all , once in a while I'll load a bunch of 223's for the Bushmaster [:)]

    Jersey Hunter,

    Both my Lee and my Sierra show starting loads of 31 gr. for 100 gr. bullets.

    My Nosler book groups 95 and 100 into one page for info. again starting is at 31 or 31.5 and max goes up to 35.5

    If you haven't already bought the powder I recommend going to H4895 Extreme. You can also look up data for this cartridge on Hodgdons and IMR's websites. AA2495 is also the same thing as 4895. AA has data on it's website for this powder and 100 gr. bullets.
