    True Blue?

    Has anyone tried it? I bought a pound at a gun show about two years ago. The stuff meters through my RCBS uniflow and is the most accurate weighing I've ever seen. It's a true spherical powder. 5 grains with the Lee 124 gr. Tc bullet is both accurate and surprisingly powerful.... I'm going to load up some .357 when I get a few more empties.

    Did I ever mention that I hate to trim brass?

    I.....have a lb in the closet but haven't gotten around to loading anything with it. Like most random powders it was acquired during the dreaded shortages. If it works for 9mm or 38 I'll give it another look.

    Thanks bullwolf, will take a look this weekend when I'm back at my desk. I have a few of the fliers I grabbed at my local store that had some load data just hadn't gotten around to trying everything. I'm guilty of once I find a good/accurate load that meters well I just keep running it until I run out of that powder.
