What's Your Favorite Powder for Milsurps?

I reload for .223, 7.62x39mm, .308Win, .303Br, 7.62 x54R, 8mm, .30-06. All 7 of them are milsurp cartridges, so I use a milsurp powder. WC735 21lbs at a time from Higginson's. One powder keeps my confusion at the bench down and, even they are not the fastest, bestest, superest rounds they all go bang (which is fun) and they all hit what I aim at (which often means work).
I use the same powder for the .30-30 and the .243 Win, as well. Only three powders in my inventory: WC735, 800X, and WSL (down to my last 4 lbs, then develop loads for the 800X). It makes rifle powder easy to distinguish from pistol and shotgun. Not much chance of making a mistake.
