Fotis you seem to be a day late and a pound of powder short. :lol:


Tru dat! :evil:
 
Fotis, just looking in my old Nosler #1 Manual they are showing 3347 fps with 51.o grs of IMR 4350 and 3488 fps with 54 grs of IMR 4831 under a 100gr Partition. These were both max loads in 1976, I love these old manuals because the loads were tested in real guns. :)
 
Powder Valley has RL 17 in 1 & 5 Lb jugs at a decent price but local is always better :)



Found this local yesterday 8lb 160.00 after Military discount :)
