Thxs Jerry I have a LOT of different powders - it Was just for interest and conversation Sake i asked ! Have you ran IMR4895 much or at all ?I am currently loading H4895 for 75gr ELDMs (varget would also be a good choice here)... WC735 (will switch to H335 when I run out) for the 50gr TNT for bulk shooting. I am running low on a clone of IMR8208 which I also really like for the TNT but running very low
I would never limit myself to just 2 powders.... the supply chain does enough restrictions.
The vast majority of mid burn powders were designed around the needs of a 223 so getting good performance is really just a matter of proper load work up. If you need temp stability, that limits options. If you want to make bulk on a progressive, that will also limit options.
Choose from what you can find and suits your end use goals.
