[QUOTE="LewisH, post: 284043, member: 8507"] "Throw the dang'd stuff away. Back in the "day", all the manuals said 60 gr of 4831 and the 130 gr Sierra was good for the magic 3000 fps plus. It did shoot pretty well, hung around .75 MOA for and harvested may mule deer." IMR 4831 is faster than H4831, and is a completely different powder. That 60gr/4831/130gr bullet/ .270WCF load was Jack O'Connor's famous recipe based on surplus WWII 20mm Oerlikon H4831 Today's H4831 is much the same, except you can't buy it in paper bags for a few cents/lb anymore. :) [/QUOTE]
