FYI. 
Bruno's Shooting supply has 8 lb jugs in stock for 210.82.  This powder has been hard to get online for at least 6 months.

This is also where it is at on the burn rate chart along with the most popular powders also for the same use.

Like John, I use it for breech seating my 25-20 Win up to 38-55.  In my experience (don't ask) it is safer with an overcharge than 4227 in my 32-40 at least.

OK... right there with SR4759 Smiley

Thanks for the guidance! I've heard good things about it but as ol'Jack Webb used to say... "just the facts M'am!" ... thinking I'd like to try some in the .38-55 Ballard 

Thanks,
Jeff P

John, was it 300MP that you determined worked best with magnum primers?

Yes sir and they have actually been the best choice for me when using 300MP.

So John,

I think your screen shot cut off the 300MP.
Looking at another burn rate chart I see that it (Alliant 300MP) is (66) right above (faster) than Accurate 5744 (67)

Would you say the 300MP is bulkier than 5744 for the same charge weight?

TIA

No on bulk and it is a ball powder. 
On the chart it is 122 and right next to 4759.

Well, of course you are right..
I don't know why I didn't see it in the first place.
On 'another' burn rate chart it had it at 66 or 67, so that's where I looked, duh.

Appreciate your intel on the cartridges that it works on, thanks.

If I recall, some said it worked better with breach seated projectiles as opposed to fixed...?
Any thoughts on why..

I have only shot in breech seated competition for 23 years so I don't have any fixed knowledge at all.
