Wait until you see the Dale Goens Swede he just picked up. You'll forget all about this jug of powder

I imagine the overlap between Varget and IMR4320 is what closed up shop for the 4320. I only tried both loads in the same gun twice. Both times the loads and accuracy difference was barely discernable. I use Varget now. Yeah, Varget is pretty close and a great powder. I have a can of 4320, hanging into it as it may be the last I’ll ever see. DF

Also was not happy that 4320 was discontinued.
150 gr Hornady Interlocks in front of 4320 shot about MOA in my Savage 99 featherweight when i was shooting any good. Took a number of deer with that load.
later i sporterized a small ring Mauser--7 x 57. When the barrel was 'matured' IMR4350 and 4320 were tried with different bullets.
150 gr Winchester pointed soft points would shoot 1.5 MOA with 4320.
150 gr Partitions would shoot MOA with 4320.
the small sticks of 4320 metered pretty well thru my powder measure.
AM hoarding what i have left.

4320 was my 'go to' in .308 competition...hunting loads in the 7.65 Belgian...hunting loads in the 8x57...and killer accurate in the 7.62 R in a '39 Finnish re work. What a shame it's gone...internet opinion says Accurate 2520 is very similar, but it is unobtainium around here. I've dabbled a bit with 2520 in the 358 and 300 Sav. The jury is still out for accuracy but it meters even better than 4320. I need to keep an eye out for more and do more testing. Dale

I used it in my 7x57 for years. Sad to say it is all gone now.
