My supply of H-335 is nearly gone, and I was concidering trying Varget. Problem is I use a 1050. Has anyone used Varget in a 650 or 1050 successfully? The H-335 flows like water and is very consistant. I'd consider Varget as it's in the same ballpark with .223 and it's got a reputation for less temperature sensitivity. All of which is pointless if it's going to bridge in the powder measure and lead to greater charge variations.
Extruded powder in Dillon powder measure? Anyone try Varget??

Hi Canuck I have a Dillon 550 and use Varget = stopped the kernels are pretty big and it would throw out. Just my experience. I would stick with h335 I use both - I use varget only through my electronic powder trickler.
YMMV

I use Varget in a 550 as well. It seems to throw proper charges for me. When loading .308 match rounds I throw a charge, then weigh it to verify its weight. Most loads were right on the money and there were very little I had to add or take away. All my loads were measured with a dillon electronic scale.
Once you start using the longer extruded powders like IMR4064 I begin to have problems, but I am confident that Varget meters fairly well with my setup.
