    WW760 and H414 are similar, and are known as the ball version of 4350, which is extruded. While not the same, charge weights are generally very similar, so normally if you didn't have a manual, yu could use the minimum weight of 4350 as a starting point of the ball powders.

    Thanks Ray B, I was reading other posts about Ball powder and should I use the Magnum Primers?

    Generally as a rule magnum primers are not needed unless your using over 50 grains of powder in a case, or are shooting in very cold weather.


    Gun control is hitting what your aiming at.

    All my hunting loads for the 06 use W760 powder. While I don't normally use the 180 gr, it works just fine (and is very accurate) for both 150 and 165 gr. Ignites well and you shouldn't need a magnum primer for any load in the 06 case.
