H4831sc and 140 eld

[Lkwebb]

I have a pound of this powder that was given to me. I know it's a slower powder than 4350 but can it give decent results. My rifle has a 26 inch barrel which would possibly give it s little more time to burn and pick up some velocity.
What's yall opinion to help this Newbie...

U may find the H4831 to be the most accurate. Won't be the fastest but very temp stable

My 6.5CM loves that powder, 42.6gr Fed 210M primers shooting 140gr RDF Nosler bullets at 2720fps with ES of 20 and SD of 7.5 from 28 inch Criterion barrel Savage action.

Not many 6.5s don't like that powder. I started chasing velocity and got away from it for a while. Then came back to my senses and realized speed don't mean as good as accuracy does. The RL23/26 is another great option.

I have no problem getting top speed with H-4831/4831sc. Problem is much of the time the best accuracy with this powder is not at max pressures.
