I use Benchmark for 55 gr. down and Varget above 55 gr. Both are clean burning, produce good velocity and accuracy and are both "Extreme" powders which I like. I've tried some others such as 748, TAC, 8208, but the two mentioned above work best in the rifles I load for. Oops! Not supposed to end a sentence with a preposition, but sometimes it works out that way.


If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.
