Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Fast powders in deer cartridges

I used quite a bit of Universal under 165 flat point cast bullets in my 308 for a few years. Its been unavailable for 2-3 years so I just stayed with heavy loads topped with 180 cast Saeco #315 clone bullets. Powders have varied from Varget, N202, H4350 and now A4350. Several deer fell into the freezer with those loads.

Holy crap, I can just imagine the powder granules left hanging between cylinder and frame.

I once knew a guy(about forty years ago) who loaded a 44 maq by just dipping the case into a bowl of IMR 3031.

Nah, I don't do that either.

I use Benchmark in 308 if that counts
