I have pretty much decided I can do all I need to do with handguns using Unique and 2400 powder. I would like to find an all around rifle powder and just buy a decent amount of it. My thoughts are that IMR or Hogdon 4350 is a darn good all around powder but probably not for 223 and 30-30 loads. I have enough 4350 on hand for my needs. I am leaning towards Hodgdon 4895 as a best all around rifle powder that can be made to work in all the rounds I shoot. My rounds are 223, 30-30, 7-08 and 30-06. I may get another 243 because I have so many component bullets for it. I gave my Ruger American to my son and sort of miss having a rifle in that caliber.
So what would you folks suggest for a Do-All powder? I am open to suggestions even if the powder isn't currently available. I know Varget is a popular powder but I have never used it. IMR or Hogdon 4064 may be another good all around powder. Thanks for your thoughts.
