[big bear]

I have 6lbs of this powder. My1995 Vihtavuori Reloading manual says its burn rate is between IMR4895 and IMR 4064. Should be o.k. for Garand/ M14 ,150gr bullet loads,Yes? No?

I used this powder for my 300 yard load in a M1a while shooting NRA HP back in the late 90's. Used 42.5 gr with a 155 SMK but I would obviously drop that back some to start with you rifle. Never tried it in a M1. My father has been using it recently in a DPMS 308 and it has worked well there also.
