spispeza,

I'm using 44 grains of IMR 4064 with 150 grain Hornady spirepoints and CCI 200 primers.  I'm getting 1.5 inch 3 shot groups @ 100 yards using iron sights.  I've heard of good results with H 4831 with these bullets but I don't have the loads.  I'm also using reformed GI brass.  

Blessings!
