Anybody using this powder? If so, in what calibers?

Haven't used it yet. I've read of outstanding velocities in the 270 with 150 gr bullets - check out the thread on 24hourcampfire. This is a less temperature sensitive powder which should be good with large capacity magnums. I think the burn rate is similar to RL 25 or IMR 7828 or H1000. I want to try it in my 7mm Rem Mag and 160 - 168 gr, bullets.

I'm getting some good velocities in my 270 Win and 7 SAUM.

The thread on 24hour campfire indicated that they were seeing over 100 fps more than published velocities with 150 gr bullets in the 270.

I'm using 140s in my 270 Win and 160s in my SAUM. I'm getting single digit ES in both calibers, as well.

300 WBY got about 3200 w/ 180gr which is like factory but from a 24" barrel. So that ain't bad that was a Vanguard.
Nearly 3400 in .25-06 with a 100 grain Barnes which is what I had worked hard on for a while with a Retumbo load.
Those were the good ones in my stable.

I have been reading up on it
