IMR 4064 Powder in 260 Remington
« on: January 18, 2012, 02:44:24 PM »
Has anyone used IMR 4064 powder in a 260 Remington or similar caliber rifle?  If yes, how is the accuracy and velocity with your loads?  I picked up a pound today in anticipation of good results with lighter weight 6.5mm bullets for varmints come spring.  I have the Sierra and Nosler manuals which I will follow for load data.
 
Thank you in advance.  Rol

I've used it in my 20" Superlight H&R 260 Rem with the 120gr Sierra PH, excellent accuracy and good velocity in the short barrel.
