Dominion Powders Now Available

[TheNatural21]

Appreciate all the testing data guys.

Looking to ideally pick one of the Dominion powers to work in bot .223 & .308

Ideally thinking:

.308, most likely Sierra 175 gr 22" bbl

.223 most likely Barnes TSX .70 gr 16" bbl (possibly Sierra .77 gr match king)


Thinking D4895 might be a good middle ground.
Any thoughts appreciated.

Not sure what my thoughts are worth as I haven't actually loaded any of it up yet, but I bought some D4895 for my 308. H4895 and IMR4895 are pretty good in a 308 so D4895 should fit right in.

I too went with the D4895 for my 308 and 223. really good groups with 155 Lapua Scenar-L in my 308. Havent done load for 223 yet

Finally got to try the D4895. Great stuff, will buy more in the future.

I have not in the Creed.

I'd be super interested in that!

What the latest lot number for the D4895 ?

[DarkSyd]

Any chance more D4198 coming any time soon? I'm almost out of IMR, and would love to try some dominion stuff.

I have found D4198 to be a laser with 55gr campro 223rem
22.7gr bolt guns only load
3180fps

I have some D8208BR still testing seems fast in my 308 win

and have D4350SSC on the way

Did you finish your d8208 testing in the 308?

[Sakonut]

I'll have to piece together my data, but anyone else finding this 8208BR to be quite a bit spicier than the books? I'll post some numbers after I sort through my data, but as a rough guide, at below .223 max loads in my 16" barrel, I've got 55gr campros smoking out at 20" m193 velocities.

My other bullet was the 75gr hornady hpbt, chrono was acting up for first few charge weights, got it going for my string of 10 at less than a half grain above hodgdon .223 max and proceeded to kick every second primer out of its pocket with an average over 2800 fps. However, over the 10 shots my extreme spread was under 40 and SD numbers have to be close to single digits.

This was with 5.56 chamber, 1x fired IVI brass, CCI 41 primers, ambient temp -5. More loading to do, but needless to say, ill be pulling bullets and focusing on the lower charge weights again
