    With the light Barnes bullets I would try IMR4895 first. (And use the data from IMR themselves.) With the barnes bullets you can load them up a little bit more than normal, but work up carefully in half grains, because with this faster powder the pressure signs come on suddenly.

    Based on the examples above, probably 50fps faster than a 308.

    I've got a barrel chambered in my 30-06 imp & another shorter one off the Titanium that is 30-06ai.

    I'm sure I can get it on an action etc

    Even at 24" it goes very well

    Now that is very usable lr velocity compared to 308win at 2750- 168amax and 3180- 130ttsx.
    Shame horny don't do a 130 gmx.
