Default LT-32 in the VarTarg

I used LT-32 in the VarTarg with the 40 gr. Berger in the 20 VT LV at the Super Shoot in '19. It's a challenge to get enough in the case, but it came close to my target velocity. Long drop tube recommended.

Don't think it's been mentioned but is anyone using CFEBLK?

I used up a partial 1lb on 17FB and 20VT. I had read where some didn’t like it because of the small case fill. I shot it up with no issues or nothing to get excited about, speed and accuracy were in line with other recipes I had used.
I was gifted a partial 8lb of cfeblk by a buddy that no longer used it, so it will see some use sooner or later.

Digging around in my cabinet and found some IMR and H 4227. There is some load data for it in 221 and MachIV, so may give it a try on the next bunch I load up, that may be a while as I have all my ammo loaded for the 17 and 20. Enough for 2-4 hunts, try to do at least two and three is not ruled out.

I may be the only one on the planet, but I have yet to find anything that LT32 works well in, aka .222 or .223. I have not tried in .20P but with N133, i don't see the need.

I get good results with IMR4198, but getting it In the case with out a bunch of bridging issues is my major complaint.

I guess I will just look for another powder that equals the results I got with the H4198.
H4198 is the go to powder in VFS 30BR and there is more than 200 competitors using it. The local club I shot at when I lived in NM they all used it.

Default Lt-30

I’m using LT-30 in 17 Hornet and light .223 loads. Don’t look for screaming velocities, look for accuracy. I’ve seen good accuracy at mild charges in .223 with light bullets. 17 Hornet likes to be close to max charge listed.

I use CFEBLK exclusively in Vartarg with 40 Vmax and CCI 400s @ 3400.
