| I use them in some applications. I've never gotten quite as much MV out of XMR4350 as I do from H4350. I use AA9 exclusively for my 41 Mag, and AA5 for my wife's 38 Spl.
These powders do not have the temperature stability that Hodgdon advertises, but, then, neither does Hodgdon.
Hodgdon powders are usually better in this respect than most others, but not nearly as good as they would like you to believe. In my 223, Varget is LESS temperature stable than the inexpensive Winchester mil ammo, but in my 308, Varget is dead stable with temperature. In my Finn M39, the tempco for H4350 is almost identical with IMR 4350. |

| I use AA1680 in my 7,62x39 with 125gr Sierra's. Great accuracy and vel. I am also using AA 4064 and 2230 in my 7mm-08 and MagPro in my 300WSM, I like what I have tried so far. |

| I've had very decent results with the AA l680, and 4350. The best was in the '06 for regulation as it is a double rifle. The AA1680 I used in the .22 hornet and the 7.62 x 39 with great success. Each powder ahs a specific application for which it will be best at, for some it is as lawn fertilizer. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif) |

| I bought about 5 lbs of mag rifle powder one sale real cheap once, think I paid 5 buck a pound at a sporting goods store going out of business a few yrs back. Mag Rifle is about like 4831. It shot fine, but seemed to lack vel, not that it mattered. I used it many differnt guns, it worked fine. I shot it all up and havent bought any more, not unless I could get it that cheap again. |
