I'll be the contrary voice and say IMR 4895.  If the apocalypse hits (e.g. another Democrat as president) and all a fellow could find was 4350 and 4895 of either IMR or H persuasion he wouldn't be too handicapped at all across a wide range of chamberings.

For my battery which consists of .257 Roberts, .30-06 and .35 Whelen I would have to say IMR 4064. I have very accurate loads for all three that use IMR 4064 although I also use IMR 4350 for all three too. RL-15 and IMR 3031 get honorable mention too.

Another very versitile power is H4831.
With H4895, and H4831, you cover a lot of ground.
I think I could achieve good loads for every rifle I shoot with just those two powders.

A powder that can be used in many popular cartridges - max loads - low recoils loads for kids , subsonic loads ? W748 has been my go to powder for 223, .30-30, 308, 32 Win. Spl., and 8x57. This is so much of a problem that I'm looking at substitutes for some so that I can save the W748 for those that really need it. The 223 and .30-30 look promising for changes that I haven't made yet, and maybe also the 32 Win. Spl.

I would agree with what I shoot.

Reckon I'll get a mug or a jug of H . If you haven't worked with the IMR version a lot, that would be the safe bet.... then again, I've worked a lot with both... I'd be buying the IMR version.... in fact I have.. I'd bet I have 30 lbs worth of it or more....

I would agree with what I shoot. Yep. I've used it in .223 rem all the way up to 9.3x62mm and 375 H&H.. From "mice to moose", it's going to be hard to find a more "versatile" powder...
