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.

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

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.

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

A couple of months back a clerk at a local store said the Vista Outdoors rep made a statement that they should not expect to see enough primers to have stock on shelves until 2025.

I bought an 8 lb jug about a year ago, still unopened because I can’t find LRM primers at a reasonable price. I refuse to pay what the scabs want.

Last Friday I ordered a 5lb jug of Reloader 7 from Bruno's.  Still waiting to hear it has shipped. My first time ordering from them - I hope it turns out well.

Just an FYI.

I called Bruno's to as for tracking number since I'd not heard anything.  The nice lady said they are backed up shipping hazmat orders. It's because UPS is only allowed to carry 100lbs of hazmat per truck. She asked for 3 trucks a day to come pick up, but that's not happening. She has about 700 orders to go out. So it could be soon or into January before they can get it all shipped.  I'm in no hurry, so not a big deal. But thought I'd share.

SHIPPING UPDATE

 

      


For those of you with powder orders:
Please note that we are limited to 100 pounds of powder per day, per UPS truck, per UPS and DOT regulation.
We are only contracted to get ONE truck per day so most days we can ship only 100 total pounds of powder.
We do request multiple truck pick-ups every day but due to a driver shortage and the holiday season, we often times do not get them.
At this rate and with over 700 orders for powder we are well into January with haz-mat shipping.
Please have patience. We have plenty of powder and will ship your order as fast as we possibly can.
Also, order status on the website will ALWAYS AND FOREVER say “pending” as we do not use that system to process them. This is the most up to date information, we will have NO additional ETA's or updates if you phone in.
Once these orders have been charged to your card and manifested into the UPS system they cannot be changed in any way.
Also, you will receive an email from (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links) with your tracking number once the package has actually been picked up.
Thank you! 
Merry Christmas and have a safe and healthy new year,
Bruno Shooters Supply

Have you tried standard Large Rifle primers...?
If you have what was your experience or
if you have not, what would you expect would happen if you did..?

Yes I have used CCI 210's, BR-2's and Fed 210's with good success.
I just personally prefer the Winchester LRM primers.

Bpjack are you still using this in your 32-40 ? 
And if so what might be your own breech seating powder charge and if you might not know what is your average velocity ?

Than you for sharing that Jack !

Still waiting on my order from Bruno's 

The 5 lb jug of Reloader 7 I ordered back in December showed up this morning
