Wow, I didnt expect so many reply,s so quickly. I think I am going to like this forum. I havent actually looked for powder locally. I live in a rural town in California which only has 1 gun shop, and he is only a dealer, not a gunsmith. I will try out my new 170 gr rn mold tomorrow and see if l like the results. It is for gas checks. There is no sense slugging the bore since we have 3, 30-30s in the family, so I will try some reduced loads of IMR 4065 and see how I like them. I will probably buy some 3031 since I also have a 25-35 to load for also. I loaded some 6.5 Jap last week with 34 gr of 4065 and 139 gr jacketed bullets and they seem to shoot well so I will stick to that. I will have other questions about the 6.5 but I will start another thread about that. I dug out my Dads 60 year old press and scales and some rifles that havent been shot in years and I am having fun. Thanks _____Grant.
