    Yeah, I’m having a difficult time finding any of these powders currently. But I do have some IMR 4064 around I could do a side by side with.

    I’m hoping to use GRT to help with load development, and it’s model for the 4064 is second only to non-existent.

    4064 is excellent with 150gr bullets in 30-06. There is a load that people have been using for what seems like forever. Granted it is with a standard cup and core bullet, not a monolithic bullet. It is said, that if your 30-06 won’t group well with 52gr of IMR 4064 and a 150gr bullet, your rifle is sick or your scope is broken. Ive never personally tried that load but have read about it since forums have been a thing. I’m planning on trying it in my sons 30-06 with 150gr ballistic tips.
