It was intended for 410 shot shells
I would use h110 or ww296.

I'd prefer a different powder as you can get better performance, but Hodgdon's lists the H-110 and I'd not hesitate to use regardless of what "someone read"

Check for a AA powder.....I won't list the number as I'm not sure of it any more.....also I believe I used 2400 years ago.....

Go to Hodgdon's website and use the best perfornming powder.....but if they list it.....I'd not hesitate to use it.

they claim that it burns hotter than other powders?
I read about it on another forum (1911 forum)
That's what I know . some of the damage was done in as little as 600 rounds.
I used it in my 222 and had good accuracy. no apparent damage
It would be interesting to see what Hodgdon has to say.
I will not use it until more info is out there.
