Favorite .45ACP powder ?

I have used Red Dot, WST, Titegroup, 700x, and HP-38. All work well but the Red Dot and the 700x were harder to meter until I tied a fish tank air pump to my powder hopper.

That's a stout load

Chrono'ed an average of 848.8 FPS and shoots like a lazer

When I could not find any 231/hp38 I tried Autocomp. It was a little dirty with medium loads under 200 gr Plated LRN. I ran it up to 7 gr and things cleaned up. It is a ball powder and meters extremely well. I am using it for USPSA competition and it makes major power factor without a problem.

I say use what you have OP, there are lots of powders that work, like others have said find a load that works for you with what you have on hand.

I've used Unique, Bullseye and Blue Dot.

I'm no super-accurate Bullseye shooter I'm happy if all my shots hit paper on long range slow I just want a powder that meters well, has reasonable consistency, is not position sensitive and shoots reasonably clean,

I settled on Green Dot years ago and bought an 8 lb jug to hold me a while.

Now for 38 special I've been hunting for Universal Clays for nearly 2 years without success.
