Anyone use IMR 4831 in their 6mm Ackley?

[Tyler Kemp]

I came across a free pound of the stuff and am looking for loads for bullets in the 75-105 grain range. Sites vary wildly, I want a fast load but not an unsafe one. Maybe a quickload user could help.

IMR-4831 From 44.9 grains to 49.6 grain with an 80 grain bullet

IMR-4831 From 42.6 grains to 47.4 grains with 100 grain bullet

4831 can't be used in your guns. PM me and I'll give you my mailing address.

Tyler,
I use 44 to 44.5gn of IMR4831 in my Win M70 HVB in .243Win. to push 85gn pills about 3150fps. She shoots great! JohnnyK.

I shot some 87 grain Vmaxes with 48 grains IMR4831 behind them. No pressure signs, shot about an inch at 100. I'll keep going until I see pressure signs!

Iron Worker,
You said it would not work in his rifle. Looks like it's shooting ok for him. Why would it not work?

Tyler,
Try running them about .007 off the lands and see what your groups look like.
