Ok 6gt guys. I am having a barrel spun up probably 17 inch. I have a couple lbs of accurate 1680. Would I be able to use this powder with Berger 105 for 200 rnds of barrel break in? If so what would be a starting charge weight. Just want to use up so older powder. Also. I have a defiance action. Do I really have to change firing pin hole and get it sleeved? If that is the correct word.

Thanks

1680 is a bit fast for that use. Why not use it someplace where it’s a better fit? It’s really a magnum pistol/straightwall powder or 300 bo.
 
Fair enough. Like I said, just hoping to use it up, but maybe I will try to run it in the 350 legend. Thanks
