I have a bunch of this stuff around but have no loads developed with it.
Seems to be in stock most places. And cheaper than other Hogdgon powders.
What cartridges/bullet weights do you guys use it in with good success?
 
I've used it in a couple 260 Rem, 7mm-08, 280 Rem & 300WSM. It's right between H4350 & H4831 for burn rate. It is not an ADI powder, made in USA unlike most Hodgdon products which are from Australia.

What rifle calibers/bullet weights do you load for? We can then suggest the best candidates for that powder.
 
Do you own a reloading manual? Just go through all the cartridges you load for and see if they have loads listed for Hybrid 100V.
I have used it recently in 6.5 Creedmoor, can't remember what I was using it in before but I've had some in the powder locker for a long time.

Fairly new powder, my manuals have no mention in them; from what I have been reading on line, there should be some data available from Hodgedon for .22-250 to 300 mag. It looks like it will meter well; short, pellet shaped extruded powder.
 
I tried it originally a few years back in a 6.5/284 but the accuracy and velocity was inconsistent. Settled on IMR 4350...
Tried it again yesterday in a 260 Rem and 270 Win.
The accuracy was poor in the 260 Rem compared to my H4350 load. The H100v was slightly faster at the same weight charge.
The 270 Win was better with decent 1" accuracy but the velocity was inconsistent again. Using CCI 250's in both.
Didn't really leave me with the impression that it's something I want to play with.
Maybe there is a reason this powder is cheap(er)!
