220 Swift, 260 (with 100 gr bullets), 270 (in BAR). Great powder. One of my favorites.

It works great in lots of things. 220 Swift, 22-250, 308, 30-06 are some of the ones I use it in. Plus it will work good in nearly any mid-size cartridge. It may not be the fastest in any of them (or it may), but it is very versatile and will work good in lots of things. I always keep 8 lbs of it around just because.

223, 308, 30-06, 30-30. It seems like I loaded some 45-70 with it as well.

I would like to shoot at 75gr Amax out of my tikka varmint. So this is powder is specifically good for my applicable? Is there a "better powder" because I have a bolt gun?

It's a very versatile powder,but it doesn't measure worth a crap with those long little kernels.

223, 243, 7mm/08, 30-06, 308 and 358 Win. I think that's all I've loaded with it. 8 lbs just doesn't seem to last long around my bench.
