New Hodgdon CFE223

Might be to early, but has anyone tried this new powder yet? Looks promising.

Just ordered some. Looks like a good thing.

I've been curious about it too.

Hey Fire, where did you get from and how is the pricing?

Hey Fire, where did you get from and how is the pricing?

I ordered it from Watson`s Tackle. My local shop. I didn`t ask the price, just asked him to get it. I`ll let you know the price when I get it.

Edit-- I just checked the price at Midway, it is actually showing cheaper than most 1lb cans of Hodgdon Powders. I would guess it will be in the same ball park here in Canada.

Looking at the .223 load data, that looks like a damn fast load with a 53 gr bullet. I wonder what the load would be with heavier (62 gr and up) bullets?

I can also order that in. Email me.

i have been using it in my 223 with the 80 and 90 grains and in my 308 with the 185s with good results in both.abit dirty but cleans up very well,

I read somewhere else that it's been really good, but dirty.
