I'm looking for powder now.

Varget is unobtainable

H322 is very available locally. But expensive

May have to stick with that tho

https://www.midsouthshooterssupply.com/item/00130precisionrifle8/shooters-world-precision-rifle-extruded-smokeless-powder-8-lb-by-lovex this is the shit- it the same as Varget but it totally out shoots it in most of my rigs.

Same burn rate*

8208 is another good option but for some reason it seems to only work in 308 for me.

@booglooman92 {OH} hows shipping from these guys? Any extra charges like hazmat?

I'm only offering info based on 16" barrels that I've obtained through experience shooting/testing...DMR/ FT-R categories can get complicated(interesting), and with unobtanium becoming the new norm, 55/62/68 seem to be the easiest projos to get,

It’s 15 bucks for hazmat- if you add an item with free shipping you pay nothing else for shipping.

I'll check that out..is it IMR/Hogdon?

I use Vitavourhi in my swedish mauser...closest I could find to Bofors powder orinally used...works good

Oh the RG4895 was a British powder- it was supposed to be another 4895 clone but was way slower like almost 4350 But a cunt hair faster. Slower then Varget too- it’s an odd ball but works very well.

I would bankrupt my self shooting any of the vitavourhi powders lmao- when I messed around with 6.5x55 sweds with the diopters I tended to use h4350 since it went nicely with some my m1’s and 30-06 AI gun.

AI...😪 sadly...cannot afford one...

Those diopter sights are hens teeth...

I saw a set once at a gun show for about $750

That they are now, in the late 90’s they they were cheap- my dad bought me a Swedish and it just happen to have those installed on it, it was my start in learning load development. It surprising how hard you can really drive those 6.5x55 m96 in lapua brass. I regret selling it but I need money for glass at the time and 1350 was hard to say no too.

Im going to take apart a 7.62x39 and pack it with as much powder as fits, ramming it down until it fits to make bullet go faster. Am i doing it right?

Replace the primer with c4

@Doc preemptive F

Oh and my trunion is cast so it'll be able to handle the detonation guys, don't worry
