Does anyone have any experience with this powder? If so, which cartridge are you loading?
 
Yeah I'ved used it a lot and I like it a lot. I'ved used it in .270 Winchester, .300 Winchester, and .300 Weatherby. It has ALWAYS been one of the more accurate powders too!
 
6x6, did you happen to load any 130 grain bullets in the .270 with this powder and how did it shoot?

Sure! It shot really good! I used 64.0gr H1000/130gr Nosler Partition/CCI 200 in my Dakota 76 for an average velocity of 3004fps. Certainly no where NEAR a warm load..that's about all that will fit in a .270 case. I got groups measuring .96 and 1.03. Although IMO this is fine shooting for a sporter weight .270 Win... 59.5gr of H-4831SC just edges it in the accuracy department(in my rifle) and gives a little better velocity-3049fps which is about wide open for this gun. I used the 130gr Partition/4831sc load on my first ever elk hunt in Colorado...it WORKED! :wink:
 
H-1000

I used H-1000 in 2 7MM Mags several years ago. One was a Rem 700 left
hand in 7 mm mag. With 72.5 grains velocity was 3150 with a 162 grain nosler solid base and groups were 3/4 inch. The bullet has long since been discontinued but I still have several boxes.
