Never be without? H4350 and Universal. H110 is another I'm sure to have. I use H450 for my .243 load until it's gone. I also have WSF for my .44 mag hunting load.

My top rifle powders are BL-C(2), H4350 and Varget.  For pistols I'd say Unique, H110 and Bullseye.

I seem to have lots of IMR4350, 3031,H-110 and Lilgun around.  Just to upset ya'll, Shipton's had a sale around here last week and I got cans of IMR for $12.00 a can.  Since I live in Montana I can get the Western powders anywhere.  Haven't tryed them yet as I keep reaching for the old known loads.  Boring, gonna have to do some spermentn' ;)  DP.

two won't do but I can function with

Bluedot
RL7
RL-10X
RL-15
Imr4350

these would allow me to shoot most everything I own.
