H4895 Loads for the 155 Palma ??

[signut]

Since varget is in short supply, and I have some H4895, does anyone have any pet loads for the H4895 powder ? 155 Lapua's, running in a 13 twist tube. Current 45.0 Varget load is running right at 2950, fast enough for our 600 yard range. Thanks in advance.

Generally 1 gr lower for 4895 vs Varget.

Like Brad said, you'll end up a bit lower with H4895. I'd start at 43.0 gr and work up. I really like H4895, great powder with many different bullet weights.

I use both powders, same 155gr projectile, and agree, 1 gr less with 4895. I am using 45.8 gr Varget in a tight bore 0.3075 x 0.298 and getting 2980 fps.
