I use this powder to load 7.52 x 52 NATO load (not a 308), shoot well in my M1 Garand the 308 has too much chamber pressure.

5 MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE RIFLE RELOADING POWDER !!!!!!
Posted by MICHAEL S. WHITLOCK on Apr 18th 2022
MY RELOADING CAREER BEGAN IN 1978 & I HAVE NEVER LOST "MY ADDICTION !! DUPONT/IMR-4895 WAS MY VERY FIRST CENTERFIRE RIFLE PROPELLANT & IT STILL RELOADS ALL OF MY .223 REM /5.56 NATO, .243 WIN, .30-30 WIN, 7.62 NATO, .30-06 SPRG. & .300 WIN-MAG & IS ECONOMICAL, YIELDS ADEQUATE VELOCITY FOR MY PURPOSES, & TYPICALLY RESULTS IN SUB-1 MOA SHOT GROUPS @ 100 YDS. BENCH-REST FIRING CONDITIONS. WORKS BOTH IN MY BOLT-ACTIONS, AR-15, & MY 1943 "S-A" M1-GARAND....1 POWDER THAT DOES EVERYTHING I CAN POSSIBLY DESIRE FROM ONLY ONE POWDER !!!! IT ALSO EXCELS IN CREATING "60% REDUCED POWER LOADS" WITHOUT HAVING TO USE ANOTHER BRAND/VARIETY OF POWDER. THESE REDUCED POWER RECIPES ARE REALLY PERFECT WHEN LOADING CAST LEAD POLYMER-COATED PROJECTILES TO VELOCITIES NOT EXCEEDING 2,400 FPS. MAKES VERY INEXPENSIVE AMMO TO TRAIN, PRACTICE, PLINK, & THEY HAVE ALMOST ZERO RECOIL TO TOLERATE------OORAH & SEMPER-FI !!!!

As far as I am concerned, this powder is the best choice for service rifle loads in my M1 and M1A platforms.
