I will soon be making another powder run and would like to pick up some 4198 to use in a .223 target rifle with 55 grain bullets. I'm inclined to go with the IMR powder but may buy the Hodgdon. I've used IMR 3031 successfully for years but have always wanted to try the 4198. Can anyone give me an idea what to expect from this powder? I'm not concerned with velocity as much as I'm concerned about muzzle upset with boat-tail bullets.
This will be for a 26 inch barrel, soon to be replaced with a 30. Thanks in advance for any constructive input, anecdotal or otherwise.
