I personally load a 165 grain Hornady spitzer with 38.8 grains of IMR 4064 with excellent results!

I have worked up a similar load however it was for my 22" carbine so the load may be hotter than necessary for a 30" barrel. The load densities achieved with IMR 4064 are best with the shorter barrels. For 30" barrels, the IMR 4350 gives better load densities.
