I just wrapped up a load workup for my .308 Winchester using IMR 4064. It's been a challenging process trying to find the sweet spot with bullet seating depth. I'd love to hear what others are working on and if you have any tips for fine-tuning or load development.

Just started cleaning a large pile of brass in a wet tumbler. Very pleased using the cleaning solution from Frankford Arsenal. And no pins. I did a large batch of deprimed 243 and 308 so far.
What is your 4064 charge in 308. And Bullet?
I shoot Model 70FW and Rem 722.

I"m taking bench time easy these days ,do just 2 pistol calibers and some of the components interchange so that makes it even simpler.
.45 colt and .45 acp using cast bullets and Titegroup powder,and any primers I can get and not go bankrupt.
..I do try diff. bullet weights and styles just to keep it interesting, my fav. is 200 grain round nose flat point with crimp groove, works in the sixguns and the 1911, aaah I love my .45's , hehe

I just finished 1400 rounds of .223, one at a time on my Rock Chucker. Various 55 gr. bullets with 25 gr. of H335. My bolt gun is 1-12 twist so I stuck with the 55 gr. I used a brick of Winchester primers and then Remington. I bot the primers way back when they were in the low $20 range. Also, bot 8 lbs. of the powder for $100 years ago at a gun show. Brass was all range pick-up. Pays to horde sometimes.
