[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1808966, member: 97414"] Yes,,, mine likes the H4831 and H1000 since RL powders are far and few up here in the far North of you folks... Be wize to the IMR & H 4350 powder charges for the 6.5 A-square / 06,,, they will work,,, but when you reach max close to the ceiling you'll see extractor marks in the case heads... My self that is,,, I have a 140gr bullet load using IMR & H 4350,,, but I tapped it down 1 1/2 grains from max to save my brass,,, ruffly 2720 to 2740 ft-per seconds with the 140's,,, good enough if I had to resort to it... The H4831 & SSC 4831 are my real fav back up powder... H1000 is my main... If your having problems getting H1000 or the RL,,, as one of the folks on this thread if they have any in their area and buy Two 8 lb jugs... Get the business contact and pay for it with free shipping to your door... Someone in your USA has it,,, maybe they can look in their area to save you time... Just a thought,,, I'd help you out,,, but I'm North of the 49th and there ain't no shipping across the line with out endless paper work... Good luck as it will all work out,,, PS: I agree,,, the RL Powders make the 6.5 rock,,, H1000 is a go to... 140/ 149 fr bullets at 2880 ft-per seconds using 53.3gr of H1000... You will have to ladder test your own rifle to find the best group,,, and pay attention to neck donuts / brass flow,,, those donuts """could""" affect your shooting groups.. I'm sure you have all the brass prep tools if your doing a 6.5 A-square / 06,,, you'll learn aloooot when you get it going,,, be keen to neck run-out... PM me if you need more tricks of the trade,,, Pal Don Cheers from the North [/QUOTE]
