Load data in caliber 9.3 x 64 Brenneke with .366 | 250gr | Barnes X S bullet and 104 powders. The key underlying parameters are shown in the table above. The recommended powders for this cartridge and bullet combination are Alliant Power Pro 2000-MR, ReloadSwiss RS 52 and Hodgdon LEVERevolution.

Important Notice: DO NOT go below Minimum Charge or above Maximum Charge. Since we have no control over the equipment and components used, any responsibility and liability for the results achieved is rejected.

Only powders/loads that match the current filter criteria are displayed: max pressure of a load ≤ 90% of max. standardized pressure, fill rate ≥ 80% and propellant combustion ≥ 95%. Use the sliders above the tables to adjust these thresholds.

Charge: Powder weight in grains. Start with the minimum load and work up carefully.

FR (Fill Rate): Case fill as a percentage. Values above 100% mean compressed loads.

MaxP / %: Maximum chamber pressure in bar and as a percentage of the standardized maximum for this caliber.

V(0): Muzzle velocity in feet per second (fps) at the standardized barrel length.

z (Powder Burn): Estimated propellant combustion percentage at bullet exit.

This overview compares 104 powders for 9.3 x 64 Brenneke loaded with the .366 | 250gr | Barnes X S. Alliant Power Pro 2000-MR delivers the highest muzzle velocity at 2,812 fps; across all powders the maximum-charge window runs from 1,565 fps to 2,812 fps. Accurate 4064 gives the best case fill at 100 %, and 104 of the 104 powders fall inside the usable 80–100 % fill window.

Relative to the caliber's maximum pressure (440 MPa), the top charges use 54–90 %, leaving at least 10 % headroom. The 250.0 gr projectile in 0.366" calls for a 1:16.5 twist; slower twists will usually not stabilise this weight. Accurate 4064, Accurate 4350, Alliant Reloder- TS 15.5 reach 100 % fill or more at maximum charge, so these are compressed loads: they need a long drop tube to seat cleanly and react sensitively to the case capacity of your own brass lot. Alliant Power Pro 2000-MR, ReloadSwiss RS 52, Hodgdon LEVERevolution rank at the top here: for 9.3 x 64 Brenneke with the .366 | 250gr | Barnes X S they combine a high case fill with complete burn and sit in the upper velocity band.
