Hi,
So I am choosing some powders to reload .30-30, .308, .270, and 8mm Mauser
.30-30 is a Marlin 336 with 20'' barrel and will load 170 gr RN bullets (Woods Deer Rifle)
.308 is a Ruger M77 with 22'' barrel and will load 165 gr Nosler Ballistic Tip (Main Deer Rifle)
.270 either in a Rem 700 or SAKO, for future considerations. 22'' barrel (150 gr Nosler BT and Partitions)
8mm Mauser is a Husqvarna M98 commercial rifle with 22'' barrel that I will load with 200 gr Speer Hot-Cors for <200 yard shots on moose/elk
I was recommended IMR 4895 for a general purpose powder, and I've read about 4064 as well.
I also saw that Hodgdon makes H4895, what difference is there from IMR 4895?
Any other recommendations?
