One thing the Chemo did was put a few holes in my memory. When it comes to reloading, that can be dangerous. I was rummaging around the cabinet the other day and found an unused pound of Blue Dot and could not figure out why it was there. I decided it was probably some hair-brained idea I'd picked up on the 'Campfire and started investigating. After 15 minutes, I found my way to some of Seafire's posts.

I TAGGED the ones that caught my interest.

I figure the Blue Dot came from reading about replicating various .22 loads in a .223 REM using Blue Dot. Specifically, I thought about seeing if a .22 Hornet was worth a try by simulating it.

As to this post, 4198 is very interesting to me. I've been using H4895 for nearly everything over the past 20 years. I got into it initially with the Garand, but soon had all my deer rifles using it. My sons grew up using H4895 in their deer rifles as well. H4895 has become expensive and hard to find. So I'm looking for alternatives.
