[QUOTE="nralifer, post: 2701629, member: 94556"] The CFE223, I think, is the closest in performance to LVR. burns a bit faster but is dirtier, which for me was an issue. If you can get it or have some already, the SRP brass from either Peterson or Lapua will allow you safely to use higher pressures. Varget should also be very good. It’s only downside is that it is a stick powder and is compressed at max loads but it is temp stable and burns cleanly. The SRP case was created to use compressed charges of Varget in competition. Not familiar with TAC and H4350 may be a little slow for your application, but I have not tried it there so I could not comment other than I like it’s temp stability.N150 is worth a try as it has a burn rate close to H414. N550 might be a bit slow burning to get decent speed is my guess. Overall. Varget is probably the best of the powders you mentioned. [/QUOTE]
