IMR 4831? Love shooting precision and long range. Big bores too! Recent college grad, started a company called MK Machining where I'm developing a bullpup rifle chassis system.  | |||

Best for speed, or best for accuracy, or best for economy? With the 70's I'll be loading the IMR 4831.  Member NRA, SCI- Life #358 28+ years now! DRSS, double owner-shooter since 1983, O/U .30-06 Browning Continental set. | |||

I shoot a 6mm-284, and have found my best loads with the 70 gr using H450 powder, now sadly discontinued. I am now trying RL22, 4831 SC, and vv160. No time for testing this summer however, but hopefully when things settle down a bit. - dan "Intellectual truth is eternally one: moral or sentimental truth is a geographic and chronological accident that varies with the individual" R.F.

 Going through the cook book info and reverting back to when I was using a 6mm X .270 IMP, it would appear that one of the 4350s are indicative. That may be old hat but they still remain top shelf powders in this capacity to cal. area. rogerOld age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward.

Bobby, for what it's worth, I have a Cooper in 6/284. I have been using H414 with a Berger 69 High BC bullet with VERY good results. Drop me a note for particulars if you like. Russ NRA Benefactor Member | |||
