    IMR 4895 Start: 41.0gr, 2463 fps, 42,800psi \ Max: 45.0c, 2704fps, 57,800psi


    If I ever run into anything even close to that much lot-to-lot varrience I will quit loading ammunition. Period.

    If I ever get handed a hand loaded cartridge by someone who says "Sorry, I don't pay attention to IMR vs H" I will most likely run. And I hate running.
    So do I wait for IMR 4895 or not? DSH should have 10 lbs of that coming in a week.
