IMHO it will do for mice to moose.

IMHO it may not and most likely not work in thier rifle. It boggles my mind why people share thier loads to try in someone else's rifle. I know you didn't say try this in your rifle, but it means that.


If rifles chambered for a particular cartridge are all so radically different that what works in one most likely won't work in another, then how did the various "standards" that typically work quite well in most any rifle come to the fore over the years?

Examples:

308 Winchester: Federal Gold Medal Match, or 41.5 gr IMR4895 (or 42 gr. IMR4064 or 39 gr. IMR3031) and a 168 SMK in military brass

270 Winchester: 55 gr. IMR4350 and a 130 gr. bullet

30-06: 52 gr. IMR4064 and a 150 gr. bullet


I could go on.

Thank you sir. That was my point. The combo works well and it is a good starting point.

Obviously start at 43 gr or so........
