Thanks, I will look for it. The book shows the below powders, in order of most recipes. I didnt list the ones with 10 and under so there are more options, I just dont want to play the reduced load caution game if I dont have to do so.

IMR4350
IMR4064
IMR3031
IMR4895
IMR4320
H380
H322
IMR4831

If you are loading for a Krag, find a copy of Phil Sharpe's "Complete Guide to Handloading", either the 1938 or 1941 editions. Both can be found on line. Lots of safe loads for the older IMR powders.

The problem with old references and their data is that the propellants may have 'changed a bit' over the years, even if the number or name still is used.

There is the need to test and verify, preferably working-up, from starting loads.
