[QUOTE="Alucard, post: 166852, member: 4064"] My Swift likes RL 15 and IMR4831. IMR powders burn HOT! So you would be limited to about 3 shots then let the barrel cool. RL 15 will get you about 4-5 shots before you should cool the barrel. Other powders to try would be Varget, IMR4064 and H414. H414 is a sphere powder so it should meter well. I would also have to say to NOT get a 8lbs container of a powder that you are not sure your rifle will even like. The Swift is a temperamental thing and might not shoot something as well as in another rifle. I have had great luck with Nosler 55grn Balistic tips, 55grn Siera BlitzKings and 50grn Hornady V-Max bullets out of my Rem 700. I have loads for each bullet that will put 5 shots in just about 1/4" at 100 yards if I am shooting well. I have also tried some of Richards 45grn P10 flatbase Wildcats. They shot exceptionally well.
