I use H1000 for my 300mag, 4831 for my 30.06 and 270 all compressed loads. They are all very accurate and consistent, coincedence maybe but it works well for me.prosper said:why do you 'really like to use compressed loads,' anyway? Go with what produces the best results, and if it's compressed then so be it. Choosing a powder simply because it produces compressed loads seems a little silly to me. I'd start in the Varget/4064 burn rate and go from there
