Dominion Powders Now Available

[Ruger007]

Thanks for the test Ruger007. Looks like those 4064 powders are nearly identical, maybe the d4064 is a touch slower. Was the grain size of the imr 4064 a longer stick compared to d4064ssc?

4064



I would say without getting the micrometer out that the D is slightly cut shorter but a bit thicker. Prehaps a slight change in color?

4064 would work well for 150-165 gr bullets in the 30/06. Heavier bullets probably 4350, but I haven't tried it.

I'm using D-4064 to make 147grn FMJ service rifle loads in .308. It does great at the lower pressures and comparing to bolt gun data you have a lot to gain if you wish. It should do very well with the -06 and lighter bullets.

Two five pounders ordered, is there a thread on work ups for the D powders? I know they are different per batch kinda why I got two containers, but something to get in the ball park.

Just buy it.
It is low priced and works great,
BEST of all, it's MADE IN CANADA.
(Keep Canadians working.)
they tell you to use IMR data.
I've used 4198, 4895, 4064.

That's provides some useful insight.

D4350SSC is way closer to RL19

 

[Buckmastr]

Yep

 

[jordanlillico]

6.5 creedmoor 26" barrel
44.8 gr D4350SSC
145gr MB
2775fps no presser
2.955 coal
Fed large mag rifle match primers
Hornady brass


43.7 was around 2730 better SD

 

[Ruger007]

So the D4350 is looking more like a RL19 to a 4831 speed?

That could be handy.

 

[Buckmastr]

Yes in my opinion.

 

[jordanlillico]

I will be trying the D4350ssc in a 338lapua with 230eldx
In the near future let me know if any interest I testing

 

[jordanlillico]

Also D4350SSC with 145MB @ 44.2 gr at 400 yard was 2.5 inch 4 shots with the 5th opening it up to 5.1inch
SD of 6.96
LMR primer
.025 jump

My D4895 arrived today! I have been using H4895 in a couple 308's for a long time but I haven't been able to find it lately and I'm almost out. Can anyone tell me how the current batch of D4895 compares to IMR4895 or something else in my loading manual? The IMR data, -10% and work up instructions aren't hard to follow, but if I could get a closer starting point it would help speed things up.

Obvi. I'm a novice. Is there any one' powder, that you can use to load anything from 9mm to .308?

A fast powder like d700 would work in both, but badly; you wouldn't be getting the potential you can out of either.
But if you were just looking for subsonic I'm sure you could work up a load in either

 

[Johnyy]

K thnx. I figured so, but thought maybe something {new} has come along that covers both ends.

 

[mbogo3]

ok so if my brains working properly here the D4895 is like imr4895 and seems like something id try in my 45-70. what would y'all recommend in the 30-06 something like 4064?

I use 51gr of IMR 4895 in my son's T3-30-06 with Barnes TTSX 150gr bullets @2950fps and .678" 3 shot groups.Does 40" of moose and deer bangflop mostly.

 

[jordanlillico]

D4350SSC with 230eldx in a 338lapua
@84.3gr was 2850fps and 100was .181 inch 3 shots

It is again trending with RL19 data
