Shooting  instead!  Worked up some loads for my Garand a few months ago using 4895 and 150 gr pulls.  Been prepping brass every weekend for a month and so I got the machine all set up to load last night and cranked out 48 rounds.  Going to chrono them this AM one more time before I load up 2000 more.  Going to be a good day :)

Just got back.  Loads were shot at 50 yards off a bench and when I did my part I could hold a bit more than an inch-inch-and-a-half.  Chronograph showed 2600 fps and function was perfect so I think I will spend the rest of the day on the Dillon!

Mine seems to like 47.5 of IMR4895 with 150 gr bullets. How much powder did you end up with?

My load was 46.5 grains with a 150 grain pulled M2 bullet.  Not the quickest load but the rifle is old and I'm not shootin Nazi's.  This is about 150 FPS slower than the HXP surplus clocks out of the same rifle and point of impact is about an inch lower but function is fine.
