280AI, 140 gr AB loads. Ever use Varget?

[dporter99]

Have a Cooper 280 AI, looking to start reloading. Will first try 140 grain Nosler Accubonds. I have a boatload of Varget on hand, and see it was mentioned as acceptable on Hornady's website.

Anyone use Varget with success?
Thoughts on why no one seems to reference it as a good 280AI powder on this site?

Did see a positive comment on H4831sc for this bullet, and also concerns on RL22 temp stability...

thanks,
Drew

Heard IMR 7828 SSC is another good powder for the .280 AI.

Thanks for the feedback.
welcome any comments from others who've used the 140AB as well.

here's a great reference link, in case any others reading are just starting out w the 280AI.
