Does anyone know what powder Federal uses in there 190gr 300wm round? I would like to replicate these but can't seem to find what powder they use.
 
My gut instinct tells me to use H1000, but I would like a little conformation.
 
I am pretty sure the Parent company of Federal Premium is ATK, which I also think owns Alliant Powder. So I would guess it is an Alliant powder or some sort, or a commercial powder not readily available to John Q. Public. This is pure speculation on my part.
 
I'd guess they aren't using an off-the-shelf canister powder - at least that's usually the case.
 
Thanks man. I will give it a shot. I sent the rifle to the smith for a knob and a break. I am going to change the rings, base, bipod, and add a stock pack, so that I can properly hold the rifle. I will post results after the next trip to the range.
