[QUOTE="greenejc, post: 2237931, member: 60453"] IMR 4350 will work for all of them. I use it in 6mm Rem, 30-06, 300WM and 308. In a pinch, I use either 4350 or IMR4831 in my 25-06. Your barrel twist if the barrels are commercial would be 1 in 10 for most of those calibers, with maybe 1 in 9.5 for the 7mm RemMag. The .338 is probably a Winchester Magnum chambering. As to bullets, try Barnes. They're more available at this time, and load data is also available in nearly every load manual that's been printed in the last 8 years. The various X bullets will do pretty much anything you want to do inside 600 yards. Also, a couple of alternate powders which will work in just about all these calibers are IMR4831 or H4831. I also like your ideal range. I don't like trying to kill anything bigger than an antelope at over 500 yards. There's too much of a chance of either a bad hit or poor expansion. If I think my shots are going to be really long, I go to either the 300WinMag or the 35 Whelen because they both make enormous wound channels at that distance. [/QUOTE]
