Accurate 8700 Powder Replacement

My buddy shoots a 6.53(.257) Scramjet. He loads 91 grains of 8700 under a 100 grain Partition. Problem is he is having a heck of a time locating any 8700. What would be a good replacement?
Thanks in advance.

Might look at Hogdon's US-869 or WC872.

Scramjet

How does he like the scramjet?

He likes it alot. Not alot of recoil. Only downside is the barrel life is pretty short.
