    I would try a 5 shot grouping then go from there. Have u tried imr 4198 or accurate 2230? If not I'll trade a ounce of ether or both. I wouldn't mind trying some of that imr 4895. I have had nothing but good results with the imr 4198.

    I usually shoot 7 shot groups...but this time, my photographer was of the opposite sex and had other things on her mind while captured out in the wilderness at my lease.................:becky:

    I have all that powder you mention.....ain't the same with my development.

    Merged into the "Local Powder Dealers and Availability Thread."

    I was in there yesterday afternoon and picked up 2lbs of BL-C(2). I would have gotten some Unique if it had been there. I need pistol powder more than rifle powder, but I couldn't leave without grabbing some BL-C(2) since I've only found 1lb in the last year or so.

    How much did it run you per pound?
