[QUOTE="LewisH, post: 503522, member: 8507"] H414 has long been my powder of choice for .308 case size varmint cartridges (.22, 6mm). It's slow burning, gives top velocities and great accuracy in those cases, and goes through powder measures like water for ease of loading large batches of cartridges. :) But, from my less that happy experience, if you load it to max levels at a moderate temperature loading site, it can result in way over max signs in a hot prairie dog shoot environment. H4831SC is probably better temperaturewise, but the kernels require throwing short charges on a scale and dribbling up to get an accurate desired load, and I don't wanna bother with that. [/QUOTE]
