I've had uniformly terrible results in two calibers now, with multiple bullets. For those of you using this stuff to good effect, do you have any tips or tricks?
Does it at least make good fertilizer?

Boss, if I had the ability to ship Haz I'd have it on the way today. Let me know if you're around SW GA some time ;-). I'll keep working the pound that's open and see if I can escape mediocrity. Also have a bunch of IMR 4955 for trade ;-). Nothing wrong with that powder, but I sold the guns that shoot anything I would load with it... guess I could always try it in the Creed...Good fertilizer, huh? Send it to me and I will be glad to (safely) dispose of it for you.
I have had no issues using Superformance with 143/144 grain rounds in my 6.5 CM RPR. I really wanted to use lighter bullets in my MPA BA. I found that the MPA shot well with both 144 SMK’s as well as 130 grain Berger VLD Match and Hunting and 130 grain Sierra SMK. Despite what has been said, I have had excellent results using SuperFormance with the 130 grain bullets, both the Berger and the Sierra’s. The MPA shot both brands using a moderate load if 44 grains with the Sierra’s and 44.5 grains with the Berger VLD Match.
Accuracy has exceeded the RPR which was pretty darned good. Velocity has been running at 2830FPS for the Sierra’s and 2840 for the Begers. Slow compared to most, but the velocity that showed the best accuracy in testing for both bullets. As a note, when breaking in the barrel, the 144 SMK’s shot great.
