Hi folks,

I aquired 100 of these and have been looking for load data for the Marlin 336,

I found some using IMR 4198, RX7, and S4197... I have none of these !

Has anyone experienced shooting these and whats your take o them?

I have Varget, 2230c, Unique, 231, lilgun, h110, clays.... any loads for these powders?

Thanks all for the help

Dave

using 4198 or Re7 30 grains will give you about 3300fps at 35000psi and 32 will give you about 3500fps at 40000 psi. THOSE LOADS ARE SAFE IN MY GUN BUT MAY NOT BE IN YOURS. So work up to them

Thanks Lloyd,

Seems I need to buy some more powder.....those seem to be the only powders used that anyone has "admitted" too :)

What kind of accuracy are you getting and at what distance ? anything else I might want to know or anyone can share

Thanks

my tc carbine with a 16 inch barrel will do 1.5 inch at a 100 yards. Ive shot hotter loads then ive posted and it seems to help accuracy to kick them in the but.
