Went to my buddies reloading shop today to pick up some IMR4895.
He was out as well as everybody else anywhere close by.
He had some H322, so I picked up a pound to try it out.
Any of you guys using H322?
Also, what kind of loads and accuracy.
I should mention that I am loading Hornady Vmax 32 gr.

Re: H322 opinions
Your loading book or the Hornady data site, should show you a start load of around 25.5, with a max of around 27.5 for that powder and bullet weight. Check it out. Play safe.

I have numerous reloading manuals to give me charge weights.
Accuracy input is more of what I was looking for.

You already have a pound of the powder. Work up your own load and find out for yourself.
Many people will say it's good , others no. Your rifle will give you the truest answer.

That's precisely the way the rest of us found our "pet loads", by trying different combinations. H322 to me is more useful in smaller cases, but it will indeed work in the 204, and the only way you'll find out is by trying it in your rifle.
Besides, that'll get you out of the house and spend time with your rifle at the range.....always therapeutic.
