IMR4227 and 38-55win

[Larry7293]

I have a lot of IMR4227 and wondering if it would be a good choice to use in reloading with a 255gr rnfp bootlit in a 38-55win Henry? If so what would be a good starting load to use?

I have a Winchester 1894 with 26" octagon barrel , left the factory in 1897 . I cast and size my LEE 255 gr bullets .379 . My notes show 18 gr / 4227 yields approx 1350 fps . My favorite and most accurate load is 22 grs of either H or IMR 4198 . Hope this helps , Regards Paul
