Powder Valley has been well stocked as of late.

My favorite powders are:  RL16, which I use extensively, then occasionally H4350 and finally RL26.  I only shoot the 140 gr. weight class now.

The three things I have vowed to not run out of are H4350, 12 year single malt, and good ideas that other people come up with.  Soon this thread will hit page 4 so I figure it's time to go out and pick up some more H4350 and a bottle from the Highlands.

Note to file: RL16 and a small batch bourbon will work in a pinch.

See you at the range.

Lagavulin, H4350 for 6.5CM, AA2200 for 6.8SPC, and H322 for 5.56. Life is good.

Lagavulin is the H4350 of the Islay distilleries!

I've settled on H4350 for heavy bullets, IMR4064 for the lightest and W760 for 120 to 130 pills with magnum primers for all. I get sub MOA and good speed with accuracy being 1st. Powders I have tried include IMR 4350/4831 and Superformance and all had some good results.. There are powders often mentioned that are no doubt excellent but I limit the number of powders I inventory because it gets too complicated when loading numerous calibers.

I would say,, H4350, RL16, IMR4451, H1000V. Those are my 4 favs.  I have had no trouble at all finding H4350 at any store I go to.
