I know IMR 4064 and 168gr has been a old standby but does anyone have a load or use IMR 4064 with a 150gr hunting bullet? Years ago when first started reloading used 4064 in 30-06 but never in 308 with 150s. Please share your info. Thanks, Dan.
 
Away from my notes, but I believe my charge is 46 Gr or slightly below Lyman max. Please do verify with reputable data source, as I'm going off memory here. With the Speer 150 flat base, it is especially accurate in my wife's Savage. Have also run other 150s with good results including H150 FMJBT, PRVI M2 FMJ, and Hornady 150 SP.

4064 is my go-to powder for all things requiring this burn speed. It just seems to produce near top accuracy in all suitable applications.
 
A very accurate powder! Find the sweet spot off the lands and you'll be in business.
