Just wondering why I dont see more references in here to these powders, opinions??

Ive been pleased with their results, am I missing something?

When I started loading I used 748 and 760 for my varming rigs and got great results. Then I got "smart" by talking to people and learned that they burn dirty, were temp. sensitive, etc! Seriously, I found H335 to work a little better in my .223, but I still think highly of both powders. Winchester irritates me because they keep changing container and screwing around with what used to Mag Rifle Powder (MRP).

I'm a sucker for thinking there's another powder out there that will improve my groups, so I've accumulated WAY to many of them. I suppose a smart person would be advised to stick to one "family" of powders (I'd probably go with Hodgdon if I had to limit myslef to one brand, although the IMR fans will certainly be heard on that one..)

Ball powders may have their critics, but for mass production of prairie dog rounds they're hard to beat because they meter so well.

I agree, but I think sometimes I'm too clever by half and would have a more consisten load development strategy if I used fewer powders and worked on other variables. But I dunno.
