smokemjoe,

Of the powders listed, N100 and Reddot work well for me. I drive 230-250gr bullets up to 1000fps. I seem to do most of my hunting with Reddot, near max with 4.8-5.1 grains depending on the lot. If you don't like the powder that fast, Universal works well with Keith type bullets. Not so well with the LBT type.
