Dominion Powders Now Available

[fishermanforlife]

Tried D4064 in my .223 today. Max charge I tried was 22.8 grains @ 2525fps with 90 grain JLK.

That's pretty DAM good bro..

I wasn’t sure where to end my chrono test, but I may try a little higher next week. The primers looked like they could be abused more. Lol!

The load before it was similar. 22.6 grains @ 2520 fps. Just 5 fps slower than the 22.8 gn load. I’ll test 22.7 and try groups.

Good info, thanks. Would you recommend the d4350 or d4064 with a 7mm08 using 130-140 grainers. Currently I use h4350 at 2800-2850fps.

I haven’t shot the 140’s with the dominion powders but the 120’s shot well with the d4064sc

Forgot to mention, fwiw, using the same reloading process, here is a comparison between Varget and this latest batch of D4064. Using .223 caliber, 90gn JLK and close to freezing air temps.

Varget (purchased Dec 2020, 1091720 7225)
22.7 gn...... 2539 fps
23.0 gn...... 2539 fps

D4064 (purchased March 2021, Lot #18):
22.6 gn...... 2520 fps
22.8 gn...... 2525 fps

I don't know if it'll be as close using other bullet weights in other temps, but I found it interesting.

Can you read the batch number? It should say on the container. Just for future references.

Done. Edited my post.

Thanks, I got some 130speers flat base I wanna load up. 4064 may be best.

I’m just getting into reloading and plan on loading 223, 308 and 30-06 (for a Garand). Is there one powder that CanAm has available that would be a good choice for all 3 of those calibers or would I be better off getting 2 different kinds?

Wasn't it a given that 4895 was the military rifle powder for decades. Perhaps 3031 for light.bullets.....you know 303#1? Sorry dont think dominion makes 3031.
