Don't expect top velocity though, it will go bang, and take game, but IMR 4064 is too fast for that case dimension and more suited to a larger bore ratio with that case volume such as the .30/06.


Thanks JW




Generally speaking, and from 6mm bore size up, the more restrictive the case mouth, the slower the powder needs to be if you want full velocity for the chambering. Onceyou hit about 50 grains powder capacity, the slower powders start to offer advantage.
