    Imr 8188

    I have the opportunity to buy 8lbs if IMR 8188 in a sealed container for very cheap. I am having trouble finding data on it. Anyone know of it's proper uses and where it falls on a burn rate chart?

    Thanks,
    James

    Don't know if this is correct but the label pictured here claims is the SR 4759????

    surplus IMR 8188 powder, this is a faster rifle powder excellent for cast lead bullets. Burn rate is similar to SR 4759
