[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3289679, member: 15054"] H4895 can be used in a 60% reduced load in any gun that calls for H4895. [URL]https://imrpowder.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/h4895-reduced-rifle-loads.pdf[/URL] You may have already known this. Red dot I have used in 30-06 cast and in 32-20 cast loads. Soft cast bullets were used as my loads are very low pressure I used 11 gr in 30-06 and can't remember what I used in the 32-20. maybe 2-3 gr it is a Marlin Ballard rifle. The bullets for 32-20 were powder coated and very accurate. Gas checked in the 30-06 at 1400fps from a Mossberg 100ATR. I have a 6.5 creedmoor and would not hesitate to try a fast pistol powder. I have used the same 11gr red dot in 30-06 with jacketed bullets.. those went slower and were less accurate. I have not seen load data for the creedmoor and cast bullets but many of my loads I have shot were not in any book. You must extrapolate what load you could use by finding a case with same or close capacity as the one you are going to use and same diameter projectile. A quick tapering shoulder will add more pressure to the load so think about that stuff. [/QUOTE]
