I just wont be one of the first to buy this as I doubt you will get much more out of this round than you can get with existing powders. Really, my concern is the premium price you pay for some of them over older offerings. ![]() Another benefit with a powder that has a bulk density of 980 grams/liter while very fine grained is the safety issue.

The CFE offerings by IMR are marketed for temperature insensitivity but not the Hodgdon offerings (Pistol and 223). Considering that the existing CFE powders are apparently quite a bit more than "just" good for removing copper fouling from barrels (low temperature sensitivity, broadly applicable to a variety of calibers, etc.), a CFE powder that fits in the 300 Blackout niche is a welcome addition to reloaders' choices for this cartridge - and others. No fouling, but any powder that appears to be designed FOR 300 Blackout is a good thing, and something I'm interested in. Wonder if they just tossed a little CFE into the Lil Gun by mistake.

It also yields top performance in the 6.8 Remington SPC and the 7.62X39 MM Russian cartridge. 300 Blackout, it performs beautifully in many smaller capacity cartridges, in particular, varmint cartridges such as the. In addition to being the perfect solution for the. This new powder provides full function of AR-type rifles throughout the range of bullet weights, and is perfect for those subsonic reduced loads.
