      Little pricey though - is it worth it?

        Clean burning and consistent powder. 20 bucks a pound is a good price.

          Hey Ivanimal,

          Is it better than Hodgdon and Winchester? If you think so - then I'll order some. My luck hasn't been so good - found out today that an order that MidWay shipped that's due for tomorrow doesn't have the 9 lbs. of powder in it I thought it had - I'd ordered 8 lbs. of Varget and 1 lb. of Benchmark.

          Thanks!

            Powder Valley has some of these in stock and I think some are cheaper.

                I use it for 223 and like the stuff. The benchrest guys swear by it. Buy it and try it.

                  N133 is a great powder for the lighter weight bullets in .223.

                    The next question is, better for what?

                    I load for a wide range of calibers and a variety of bullet types and weights for each of the calbers. So I keep a wide variety of reloading components on hand, including 15+different powders.

                    If you're loading for only one or two calibers and it's plinking ammo, you probably would only need one or two types of powder.

                      I ordered some from Powder Valley - I'm beginning to quickly understand why Powder Valley is recommended by Dillon.

                      Tankerman - question was a general quality question - not a caliber specific one - but I am starting with .223 - I want to move to .308, 7mm, 30-06, .44M, .50AE, .22LR(?), 12-Gauge, 20-Gauge, 7.62x54R,...

                      I met Ivanimal at the Cow Palace and trust his opinion. The last time I did this I was 8-10 yrs. old - and I was basically just doing what I was told.

                      Regards,

                        VV = great powder

                        I will say it again: CLEAN and CONSISTENT = better
