My experience with this powder is that I'm very impressed with it in .223, 45/70/, 375 Winchester, 30-30. Also makes a great cast bullet powder for many different calibers. Yes in the .223 has proved exceptional in this round, with bullet weights from the lightest up to 55 grains.
 
As I am waiting to hear back from Canada Ammo, I though I would post here also as I am sure others will have the same questions/concerns. I ordered 2lbs of D2015 as they mentioned that its is comparable to Accurate 2015. When I received the powder I discovered that the label says D2015 but references IMR 4895 load data, not Accurate 2015 as claimed on the website. This leaves to question were the mistake occurred. Is the powder I have indeed D2015 but is incorrectly referencing IMR 4895 load data or is this D4895 with an incorrect D2015 label on it? What is in this mystery bottle ? Accurate 2015 and IMR 4895 are not even close in terms of load data or burn rate. When loading .223 using Sierra 69 grain smk's, a max charge of A2015 is not even a starting load using IMR 4895 (even after a 10% reduction). Using A2015 powder but IMR 4895 data is a sure way of wrapping a barrel around your digits.

Must have been a label typo. Use 2015 data
 
Bought 15 pounds because it was cheap.

Between my 22-250, 308, 30-06 and 300 win, I'm not sure why I bought so much, doesn't seem to be to great for anything past 223 according to my reloading guides.

Anyone use this for any larger calibers wth success?

Aside from 45-70 and other straight walled rifle calibers, no. A2015 is really for calibers 223 and under.
