Need IMR 5744 powder

Does anyone out there have some IMR 5744 powder for sale. I use it in my Savage ML II muzzleloader.

Are you sure it's not Accurate AA5744 powder? I've never heard of IMR 5744.

Right. AA5744. I've never used it, but that's the number AA uses for its reduced-load and cast-bullet powder. It's listed for sale on the MidwayUSA site and should be available at your local supplier.

The corresponding (but not interchangeable) IMR propellant is SR4759. I have used a great deal of that. I read that it has been discontinued, perhaps because the number is too similar to SR4756, a shotgun powder that could produce damaging pressures if loaded to the amount recommended for the other.

I loved the original 5744, the new short cut not so much.

I am new at this so I don't even know if I am replying properly. But, you are right, it is Acurate arms 5744. No wonder I couldn't find it.quote:Originally posted by bigborefan
