For me? No question, 38 grain IMR 4064 for a 100 gr bullet of any make...

Hodgdon site shows it gives up a couple hundred fps to H4350. If you're content with that, try it.

Thanks for all replies,anyone use H380,I have a surplus of this particular powder Try up to 40 grains of H 380. It'll work just fine. I only use a Large rifle primer, no magnum primer needed. Source, Steve's Pages. I'm in the minority that likes H 380. Its accurate in the 243, at least in the ones I've had. I'm not sure it gives up much velocity to H 4350 max load... but if it does give up a couple hundred fps MV... Then set your scope elevation up two clicks, and to say 250 yrds or so.. It should put you onto the same POI. People complain about H 380 in real hot weather, so back it off a grain or two...or do like I do. don't use it when its 100 degrees outside.

H4350 has always been a standard .243 powder.
You did not "seen" anything, you "saw" it.
A "creek" has water in it, a "crick" is what you get in your neck.
