I found my load, it's around 25.3. I posted a few posts back.

My bad guys. The powder I was using was 4320. I think my load is somewhere around 25.3gn based on my testing this weekend.

Bolt action is a bit different.
I made up a few batches in 0.5gr increments starting with 23. But if anyone has a pet load I'd like to start there.

I have several manuals. But the range is wide so I want to find a starting point and build up from there.
I'm just trying to see what people have found to be most accurate coming from a 16"...

So I have a bunch of 4064 sitting around. I wanted to try it in some of my ars. I have 55gr fmj which should work well with my 1:8 twist barrels.
What are some popular loads using this powder...

I always just used black moly from Harbor freight. No issues on my end.
I actually just shot about 300 rounds of 124gn powder coated over 4.9gn of unique.
Liked it a lot. Very little smoke and fairly accurate through my glock 17.

Too open ended a question to have a simple answer.

VERY different means to get to the same end (being short a stock). You realize that potential loss on naked calls is unlimited, right?
That's a very poor recommendation to people who don't...

Your odds stay the same regardless if it's 10 or 100 mill. So the expected value does change on that same dollar spent towards a ticket.
They're not safes. Rsc at best, cabinet with a lock at worst.
There is a huge distinction between real safes and what's sold at most stores. Graffunder and the like are real safes, most of what...
Reloaders reference has an older load for a jhp.
Also these are plated not lrn.
I have 4.3gn of 700x under a 115gn plated rn with an oal of 1.13.
Imr has a load of 4.7gn of 700x under a 115gn jhp so I backed that down.
Does anyone see any issues?
