338 edge powder choice?

[spaniel]

I use Re33 and it's great, but I haven't seen it available in 5 years. I'm about ready to swear off Alliant powders in general, not because they are bad but because they are the worst for availability.

I have a big jug of N568. It's crap in 300WM, full compressed case still 200fps slow. So it might be good in the Edge but I haven't burned the components to test it. If my jug of Re33 runs out I'll have to.

Have used RE33, 105gr behind a 285 ELD-m and the 300 Bergers in one barrel with fantastic results. The other two barrels like Reloader 26 better for the same bullets. Used for ELR, 30" barrels and one 26" Proof Carbon Fiber on my hunting rifle. Faster than H1000, less pressure and seemed to burn cleaner. One of the ELR barrels has the +P chamber done by Shawn Carlock and it gained about 100FPS after it was done, well worth it.

N568 is happy in 338 edge.

Ramshot magnum has been phenomenal in mine with 92.8 grains at 2910 fps.
