Default Shooters World “Precision” Extruded Propellant

Has anyone tried the new Shooters World “Precision” Extruded Propellant in a .17 Remington, .204 Ruger, .22-250, or .243 caliber rifle? If so, is it as good or better than Varget?

Over at the Midsouth Blog they claim it is better than Varget. They said they wanted the same burn speed as Varget. They wanted the same density as Varget. They wanted easier and more consistent volumetric charging than Varget. But most importantly, they wanted superior ignition, and superior temperature insensitivity. They wanted it more accurate.

If you have tried it please post your results and your opinion. Thanks!!!

If you buy 4 pounds of any Shooter's World Powders you get free HAZ MAT on your order from Midsouth Shooters Supply.

Default Shooters World "Precision" Extruded Propellant

Saw that flier from Midsouth and their report also LeRoy. Kind of wondered if it was better, as they say, as Varget or not. Hate to try something that may not be as good, as what I have.
Looking forward to more reports and information on it, from those that may have seen/tried it. Bill K

The price is right but it would be nice to see more data.

Shooter's World gets their powder from Explosia in the Czech Republic. Explosia markets their powder under the Lovex brand name.

Here's a burn rate chart comparing Shooter's World powders with other brands:

Joe--Check over in the Small Caliber Discussion Board for my story about my June 21, 2018, PD hunt.

My back was killing me during the hunt, but I still had fun.

I have had experience with a few of the Shooters World powders and can say they work very well. Loaded the Precision in a 6BR and results are practically identical to Varget. It's like anything new, you have to give it a chance. buy a pound and let us know how it worked for you. I'm sure others would like to know.
