Shooters World Propellant

[Wheres-Waldo]

My local range carries this brand, and while I have no reason to leave Hodgdon, has anyone used this with any success? Temp stability? Relative burn rate?

I see a handful of reviews, but I’m weary.

I've seen it around too, been kind of curious as well. I'm a Hodgdon/IMR guy also.

What's the pricing in respect to other powders?

My local range has it for $25 per lb.
PRS also propping it up on FB

That's not bad pricing. I've been getting my IMR4064 for like 30 I think. If the accuracy and velocity are there, saving $5 a lb would be nice.

Midsouth Shooters occasionally runs "Free Hazmat" when you buy more than 4 pounds of Shooters World, so I picked up a few different kinds to try out. (Right now they have them "on sale" for $19.99/pound).

I probably won't need to load for my .308 until late fall but I'll provide feedback when I do.

I got a pound of pistol powder too so I'll see how that does as well.

The SW 4350 is on sale at Midsouth now for $22/pound. They are running a $15 hazmat discount as well. Might be worth checking out. I’m good on H4350 for now though.

I have been using the Precision Rifle in my Dasher for the past 4 months in the PRS. I have had great results.

I have SW Tac, I think I paid $135 for 8lb delivered from Mid South when they were running a sale. SW Tactical is ball powder and slightly slower than H335. I'm using it to load cheap 223 with pull down bullets. I'm only looking for 2.5 MOA blaster ammo and this works fine.

SW is relabeled Lovex powder.

The price is like $4 a pound cheaper. I am looking at the SW Match, since (according to them) it's of similar burn rate to my current powder of IMR4064.

How is the consistency and temperature stability with SW stuff?
