IMR 4895 20" barrel

[Edik310]

I have a tikka t3 tactical with a 20" barrel. Is IMR4895 considered a good/decent powder for my barrel length?

I've seen burn rate charts in the past but I've never seen one that would specify which powder "may" perform best in a certain barrel length. I'm not sure if one exist but if it does that would also be cool if you'd forward it to me.

.308 cartridge and I currently have 155 Amax and 155 Eld bullets

What cartridge are you shooting and what bullet weight?

Important info! Sorry bout that, I forgot. So I'm shooting 308 and I have some 155 amax and 155 eld

I have very little experience loading 308 but yes you are in the correct burn rate range.

Thank you. I usually run with Benchmark and H4895 and had great results with both shooting 168 and 178. I usually can get .30" 5 shot group off a bipod and squeeze bag @100y. They both perform well out to 600y. I'm out of both powders and I had the IMR I been sitting on for a while now. Guess I'll work on a 155g load!
