Hey all, I'm not going to add anything super earth shattering here, but I hope it helps the next guy.<br /><br />I have a 1898 Krag Rifle and cut down sporter. I've previously fired a handful of R-P brass reloads and Win brass factory ammo in the rifle with no issues. When I went to full length resi...

Hey Frank, sure thing!

I was able to insert them as texted, without needing to downsize (images usually get downsized automatically to text). Maybe next time if you tried texting them to yourself, you could insert them without too much trouble? Otherwise, I'm happy to help.

Thank you Mike, although I've got the IMR4350 on hand. I appreciate your help.

I'm trying to build a couple loads for the 175gr tonight to try tomorrow.

<blockquote>These are the two that I predominantly use and have good success. The 220 is supposedly close to the original military load:<br /><br />175gr BTHP, 37gr H4895<br />and<br />220gr RN, 40gr H4350</blockquote><br /><br />I appreciate it. Is there a reason you don't use the 4350 for the 175g...

Frank, I sent you a private message with my cell phone number. If you text me those pictures, I will post them for you.

let us know how the H4350 does, I am going to try that myself.
The H 4350 shoots much better than the IMR in 6.5 caliber.

Here's the test results:
