I assume that you are refering to Scot's line of rifle powders. Accurate bought Scot and as far as I know, they discountinued the rifle line. With that said, I use Scot 4065 with 80 bullets in my Ruger #1 6mm Rem with excellent results. I'm not close to max (3250 fps with a 26" barrel) but accuracy is great. Five shot string have shot less than 1" @ 200 meters and extreme spread is less than 10 fps. Only have a pound left so I will probably try Varget.

Hey Top, got access to some of that Scot 4065 real cheap if you 're interested. Of course we're gonna have some logistical problems with getting it to you, so...? Let me know if you're interested. Thks. for the reply.

Hello sscoyote,

If I'm not mistaken the Brigidier line of powders was originally made in Australia. Somewhere along the line they became Scot powder. I don't know what happened after that. Some of their powders were used by benchrest shooters so they're probably pretty good products.
Best wishes.
