I would like to hear of your experiences with TAC powder. Specifically if you were able to notice that it burned any cleaner and/or more consistently than 748. I thank all for sharing their experiences.

'hick, I havent shot any 748 but I like TAC in my 222mag a lot better than H335. It does seem to be cleaner and it is very tolerant of temperature changes. ALL of the Ramshot powders measure like a dream in a powder measure. It's like throwing water instead of powder! As they say in the TV commercial ( I forgot for what), "Try it, you'll like it!"

Thanks for the info Jim, it is nice to have experience. It seems all the powder makers make some pretty strong claims, and some of them are hard to swallow. They can't all be the best, can they?

'hick, Ya know, I've found out that in reloading there are few absolutes when talking about putting together all the variables of a load. I have a couple of rifles that love IMR 7828 and I have one that wont shoot it no matter what load I give it. If I didn't know that it was a really good powder and based my opinion using the gun that didn't like it, I would never consider using it in anything. So I've found that you need to keep an open mind and try a little bit of everything. The various Ramshot powders do seem to be of really good quality and consistency. If it is available in your area, dont hesitate to try it. Hogdon's "Extreme" powders are also very good. Could be they have one that would fit the bill for ya too. I guess that is half the fun of reloading, experimenting and finding what works best for you and your firearm. Good luck, have fun, and BE SAFE!!!!
