Alliant Reloader availability? Hodgdon H414 & Hybrid 100V spherical powder feedback

#1 Has anyone heard any new updates on availability of Alliant Reloader power for Ontario?

#2 Also in my research it appears that Hodgdon spherical powders H414 and Hybrid 100V work well for 3006, 300 WinMag and 375 H&H. Anyone have any experience with them? I have not used spherical powders but I assume they would meter much better then the cylindrical powders?
 
I use both powders in a number of cartridges, and consider H100V an exceptional choice when R-19 burning rates are desirable. Despite being an extruded powder, it meters well due to it's short geometry. In my .375 Ultra, I got a 50 fps boost using it over H-4350 when loaded under 380 gr bullets. H-414 (W-760) has proven to produce high velocities and good accuracy for medium, weight bullets in my .30/06, but one bullet weight becomes heavier than 190 grs, I prefer a slower burning rate. R-15 is clearly the powder of choice for the .375 H&H, although good performance can be had with H-414. In the .300 Winchester, both H-414 and H-100V have their place, although again, I opt for the slower powder in heavier bullet weights.
