    Shootersworld 4350


    The bottle states 6.5CM: 41.5gr with a 140smk= 2650fps, nearly 62k psi. No listed barrel length for the velocity. I loaded up some rounds with Barnes MB140's for my 12fv. Ill report what hits the paper.

    If you have a favorite load for this powder (any cartridge), post it here.

    Sounds similar to H4350. I think I started at 40.0 grains when I ladder tested my 6.5 Creedmoor using H4350. I have not shot it since. Hornady 140 ELD Match were used. 41.5 gr of H4350 was the exact charge I used that was pretty much the best group I had with my Shilen Creedmoor barrel. (I did have one pesky flier that kept it from being a one hole group.) I did not chrono it. 40.5 gr was perhaps my best group since no flier, but all groups could be covered with a dime at 123 yards.

    Would like to hear your results with that powder.

    I had 10 primed brass left and 10 straggler PPU 6.5MM 120'S. loaded a pressure test, five loads, two shots per. In the dark for load data, some of these might get pulled. I really need to buy a chrony instead of new powders.

    This powder should work in my fast twist 22-250 and 243.

    I'm currently loading IMR4350/41 grains under a Hornady 140 grain BTHP in Hornady brass and BR-2 primers. Velocity is 2655 fps and my last range trip put 15 into 3.77 inches at 425 yards. Temp was 37 degrees, humidity 80% and a 6 mph cross wind. The same load in warmer weather averaged 2688 fps.

    Not bad shooting, GaCop.
    Banning a gun will not solve what is a mental health crisis inflamed by incendiary rhetoric on social and television media. The first amendment in this case is less precious and more likely the causal factor than the second amendment.

    I ended up with two .5" groups (three shots each) out of the four loads with the 140s. Those are good odds with this gun, hopefully I can find a combo to do it consistently.


    The 120's shot all over the place and hit pressure at 43gr. Maybe I had them at a poor seating depth.
