    844 is 846, with a tighter CaCO allowance; but the recipe is identical, just differs on an as-built.
    846/844 is the go to for it. Dr. Bramwell has shown it as less sensitive in that cartridge, than Varget.
    I'm a firm believer in the theory that if it bleeds, I can kill it.

    No.
    WC powders are Non-Canister grade. Probably for the general public to buy them they have been surplussed, but they aren't inherently a surplus.
