8 x 56R Hungarian Reloading

[pmarcott]

I have just aquired all of the components to load 8mm x 56R Hungarian.
The bullet is .330 (205 gr.)
I am looking for the proper powder for this bullet weight. Burn rate and suggested type.
I normally use IMR 4064.
Thanks in advance.

Hi pmarcott
You did not mention rifle, intended use (target/hunting), or bullet (jacket/cast)... so pardon no direct recommendation. My suggestion is however to check Steyr M95 forums for many good suggestions as there are a lot of these rifles in current use and seemingly most are in 8x56R. For example check out "http//p205.ezboard.com/fsteyrmannlicherfrm9".
Lots of suggestions for loads.
Cheers
