[QUOTE="dakor, post: 34931, member: 2204"] I shoot between 20 to 25 rounds then I clean with Butches Bore shine or Hoppe's #9. I have a really smooth bore so it does not really copper foul until you hit the 30 round mark or more. Varget is not temp sensitive that is why they made it I have used it on a 40 degree day and a 85 degree day shot the same. As for load density never figured it out but in my rifle I shoot 47 grains of it and it shoots 3 shots at 100 yards in the .2's with a MV of 3487fps. I just tried it because I was bored and had a can sitting there but it did work well in my rifle. For someone just starting out I would try R-22, IMR-4831, IMR-7828, or H-4831. One of those should fit the bill for bullets 85 grains or more. Iron Worker I also use the Fed 215 Primer in my 6-284 it seems to like it better then a standard primer. [/QUOTE]
