    Accurate Powders?

    While all the IMR and Hodgdon powders are out of stock, I have
    noticed that some suppliers still have Accurate in 4064, 3100 and 4350.
    Have any of you guys ever used Accurate? Is it any good?

    What caliber are you loading? Bullet? What type of rifle are you shooting? I've heard they are temp sensitive. For some reason they are not as popular. Must be a reason no one likes them.

    currently trying to work up a load for .308 using 2495

      actually their pretty good. alot of longrange shooters are starting to use them. i use 2230 and 2460 for my ar. they work great and for my lr ar, it gets 1/16 inch better group then loaded it r15 with 2460.

          And thanks for letting that slip, Slim

              I have found AA 4350 to be one of the most accurate powder choices in my .300 Wby. It's not the same as .300 WM, but it may prove good for you too.

                  I use AA1680 on 7.62x39 and get decent results for my SKS. Just buy 1lbs of it try it out. If it works for you then that's more money for more ammo.

                    Accurate Powders?

                    What kind of problems are you having.
                    I've got and old 8# jug of 2230S and I'm using the load data on the label for my .223 and 7.62x39 uppers without any problems.
