TrophyShotPrints6.5x55mm/120grainers...[IMR 4350]?
Would IMR4350 be a decent running powder???
Looking for accuracy and moderate velocity?
What are some other known powders for this combo I should try?
Thanks gang

bartscheIMR 4350 is as good as any.
You might try the 4064s , the H 380 or even WCC846.

joe25/06I can get right at 3,000 with a Ballistic Tip using IMR4350. Reloader 22 seemed to work a bit better, so I went with it instead. Those are the only two powders I have used so far.

Finmanhi there,
I also use IMR4350 for my Swede. It works very well with the 129gn Interlock and the 129gn SST, achieving speeds around 2900fps out of a 22' barrel.
For the 120gn Sierra PH, I found that VihtN160 works better in my rifle (Sako 75IV Hunter).
good luck!
