Varget for 30-30 reloading powder?

[gwesson]

Only problem (I know) with Varget - it's a stick powder; it will fight you on certain charge throwers (like, on the LnL AP, says the voice of experience). If you're using a charge thrower, I'd recommend a ball / flattened ball powder.

I use varget already for my other caliber, and I use a Frankford arsenal powder thrower because it actually cuts the varget sticks with no issues when I drop the handle for the load.

I'll stick with 3031, always available. And as the old lady on TV says "I put that SHEET in everything.

I use Varget in my 170gr. Reloads in my '52 vintage 336 Marlin.

Better than factory velocities (have to check records when I get home next week)
Outstanding accuracy.

Varget works very well in my 30-30 Contender.
The charge is 30grs with 150grs bullets, so easy to remember.
