Superformance (hodgdon) handloads loads for 308? Anyone use this stuff?

I bought some of the superformance powder a while back. After I got it home, I noticed they don't have any load data for 308... Has anyone worked with this stuff before? I was looking at a load for my 16.5" 308 with 165's.

Seeing that its so far down the the burn rate chart(126) it might not be suitable for the 308 anyways. Shouldve bought some CFE or 2000MR, both these powders will give you more power so to speak.

Hornady has some loaded ammo available in 308, I wonder if it is a different blend...
Maybe I'll use it on .223 varmint loads instead.
Btw, thanks for the updated burn chart. Superformance wasn't on there the last time I looked.

Hornady does use a different blend of this stuff, per Brad today.
