    I've used it in my son's 30:06 and lighter bullets (125 or 130 grain), seems to work pretty good. Cabela's had some on line and Higginson's has some though I think only in eight pound jugs. I'll have to watch for that 4955. I do have all of the other three they weren't hard to find

    I've got a LB of the 4451 to try out in my .338-06 and 7mm-08. I'm thinking it'll work out nicely, but yesterday I found an 8lb jug of H414 for $215 so most of my loads for the coming year will be fueled by H414. Just couldn't pass it up at that price!

    All have been in Canada for some time. I've tried all except 7977 and I hope to try it in my .338 soon.

    I can't say I was super impressed. The only one that lived up to my accuracy comparisons was

    I can't say I was super impressed. The only one that lived up to my accuracy comparisons was 4166 in the Creedmore. Which I have to say worked very well.
