All I have is IMR 3031, and I know where I can get more of it. But I cant find 4064 nor 4895 which would have been my top choices to try first.
I see data everywhere for 3031, but have not heard anyone chat about it. Is it a good choice? I am loading pulled military FMJ bullets that run between 147 grain and 150 grain. They are boat tails with a cannelure and have exposed lead at their base.
I am shooting a Springfield 1903 with a 4 groove Remington barrel dated 1942.
Just want to come close the the military speed of about 2700 fps is all.
All I know about 3031 is it works great in my .45-70 ammo I load with it. Hand weigh each round so big sticks dont bother me.
