Other options include Accurate 2520 (often available, in ball powder) and Reloader 15 (more scarce than IMR-4064).

How poorly did IMR-4166 and IMR-4895 do as a replacement in your 30-06?


I have two benchmarks for 150 grainers in my '06. Nothing pushing the envelope.....2900 fps and 1 moa. The best I could do with both IMR 4166 and 4895 was just under 2 moa above 2900 fps... with Interlocks and Hot Cores in a 22" barrel (late 70's 700 BDL).

I also have plenty of RL16 and H4350 I use with heavier bullets. Gonna use them on the 150's and see how it goes before buying anything else.



Those are very reasonable requirements. You can’t argue as sometimes some rifles are pickier than a kid when it comes to what they like or dislike.
