[QUOTE="crazyhorse, post: 1846307, member: 3056"] I've used the 4166,4451, and 8133 in various calibers and the most consistent behavior among this line of powders is they ALL leave behind a ALOT of powder fouling. They claim to reduce copper fouling and if I really try, I can say there might be a slight reduction but nothing significant. The good part is that I've found very accurate, repeatable loads with all of them and decent velocity to boot. The best performer is the 8133 in my 7RM using 160 AB's. All three that I've used have been pretty sensitive about finding a node, meaning the ES is pretty wild until you find a node and then they seem to settle in like many of the Hodgden extreme powders. Getting single digit ES with the 8133 in my 7RM and 3150fps average (long throat chamber). [/QUOTE]
