yeah Mark - 700X just seems to have shown up the last few days ! Probably don't have a lot of them in stock , but usually they are gone the day they show up - not so far . The 572 has been avail for quite a while now , fairly useful powder as you've stated ! |

It's the hazment that keeps me back. It's all for nothing. Just a gimmick to make extra geedias. |

Picked up a pound of Ramshot Competition a couple months ago. Plan was to use in some 2.5” 12ga loads for birds and clays.
Hadn’t thought of using it in a lighter payload 16ga load previously. Anyone have an idea on a starting point with straight wall cases? Thanks! |

Thinking like 18.0 grains or so of Competition for a 7/8 oz. load.
Look at Federal GM data with Competition and 1 oz. of shot on the Hodgdon website.
That should give you a good idea. |
