Viht N130 or N133 seem to be favourite

I get on with CFE223. Seems to give good velocities but does require quite a large fill.

I'll try to find some example loads later.

That said, I don't tend to buy and try lots of powders. Once I have found one which does what I need it to do, I stick with it. So, there may be better alternatives I have not tried.

I am happy with N133.

I would find out what you can get locally and go from there.

Another vote for Vihtavuori N133.

 

[andychas]

and another vote for N133, great velocity and accuracy out of a Rem 700 and a Blaser in my experience

Not an exhaustive list but gives you an idea of whats similar.

N133 or rs40.

I'm on rs40 now as it is easier to get locally.

CFE223 yes the charge is heavy compared to some but it does help with the copper issues.

If it’s available, might give CFE223 a try. I’ve switched over to CFE223 on everything I can, I’ve had very good luck with it and it caused me to switch to CFEpistol on all that I can there too. I shoot some Barnes bullets that foul a lot more than normal jacketed bullets and I can definitely tell a difference with those rifles and the number of shots between cleaning the bore.

I use Whit on all my loading. Very clean burning.

I.ve now been searching for the N133 and so far all sold out just my luck lol
