Reloader 15 replacement for 6BRA

[urbanrifleman]

When I was shooting a 6br with 103's and 105's a few years ago looking for options for R15, I was pleasantly surprised at how well Imr 4064 shot, also very surprised that WW748 shot quite well too. Fast forward to today's offerings I'd be tempted to try the WW Stabil Match which is right there close to them on the burnrate chart. JME WD

Really a match for h4350.

I have not tried it, but AA4064 is a very cool burning powder.

with 1100-1400 rounds of barrel life with H4895, I think that I would look elsewhere. R#15 and Varget are in the same Heat Index range of H4895....choose your poison.

That seems like a short life span, I’m very new to 6bra, I’m leaning towards varget since I have an 8 lb jug.

WW Staball Match burn rate is very near WW748 and Varget.

6.5 Staball burn rate is in the proximity of the 4350 powders. One has to be careful to NOT confuse one with the other for obvious reasons. JME. WD

It is the truth with H4895! Barrels are consumable, live and learn.

I learned that. Just getting into br game. I’m thinking of most likely using varget and seeing how it shoots.

After close 20 years with brxs and Varget I switched to a 6bra. Could not get were It was acceptable to me with Varget. H4895 gained me about 70 fps with 107s and no pressure. So its H4895 until I go back to a Brx.

Ive had very good success with N140 this past season. Varget is good. H4895 is overrated, but if works, run it.

Please tell us more about your experience with N140.
Thanks
