most definately, I will keep the 4895 here. I'm thinking my inch groups at 300 yards to be somewhat lucky. Young (24 years old) eyes help but I think I got lucky and found a good powder/brass/bullet combo. I cant remember the exact charge of 4895 but I"ll check tomorrow and post it. I found the rifle groups best too with the Sierra 180gr HPBT match bullet and Winchester brass thats been full length resized. I am planning to pick up some RL-19 just to play with it. Also a friend who I shoot with all the time was a sniper in the Marine corp and he showed me a few different ways to do things and hes the one who helped me dial in the gun.

Also for the .454 Casull I think I"m just going to go with the H110.
