It's dandy for heavy bullets you have to seat deep because it gives a very good case fill
as do all ball powders. Note that this ball powder is flattened, so easier to clean up when
spilled. It's a dirty burning powder. it's meant to be loaded in the upper ranges. With light
bullets and reduced charges in my SA284, for fire forming, it was some nasty black soot.
For my 400 yard shoots and 180gr bullets, good velocity's and a bit high then Reloder-16
and H4350, with R-16 getting the nod, and Stabal not so good for my needs but would do
well for the hunters.....One note that gave me problems, and that was static electricity.
Kernels would stick to the pan when dumping into a case, and the inside of the powder
dispenser......I sold it off to a guy that was short on powder for his 260 Remington. I guess
it worked for him and the 140gr bullets. That was last year. I'll ask him how that project
went since he's a hater for anything other then H4350.
