What Powder is the best!

[kgwalsh12]

Hello All,
Just a simple tread to get feedback from the IPSC community out there regarding what they would consider to be the best reloading powder/bullet manufacture out there and why they think it’s the best?

40cal Standard Major

Over the past month or two I have been experiencing with new reloads swapping out different bullet/powder manufactures in an attempt to improve accuracy.
All comments and insights are welcome….

It'd help us helping you if you mentioned at least the caliber ....

Depends on gun, caliber, division. More info needed, my components for the Open Division are pointless for a revolver or Production gun.

40cal Standard Major

I use hodgdon titegroup.
CCI Primer
either 200 gr Hornady HAP or Cam-pro 180 gr.

Hope that helps

AIM 185 with Tightgroup and Win primers.

What powder is best

Standard titegroup with fed primers - bullets are either Aim 180 (nominal - they are usually lighter ) or zero 180 jhp

Production titegroup with fed primers and zero 125g jhp

VV is a good powder but expensive and hard to come by. N320 works good for standard.

Hornady Action Pistol bullets are awesome, Zero's are good too both in hollow points. AIM is easy to get and less expensive then the others. Most guys use 180 grain for standard.

I second VV N320. Very consistent in all kind of weather.
I regularly use Titegroup and CLAY for practice and low level matches. I use VV N320 with Zero Projectiles when there is chrono stage involved.

whatever you can get large supplies of for a good price that runs in your gun
titegroup is easy to get and a good price, been using it for 7 years
