Anyone using reloader 10x in a 6PPC ?

[82boy]

I bought 1 LBS of Alliant reloader 10x last night, just out of curiosity, and thought I may play with it. I cant say I have ever heard anyone using the powder in a 6ppc, mostly N133 or H322. Is using 10x a joke, or why don't more people use it? I been told it has similar properties to H322. Does anyone have a good load for 10x using a 66-68 gr bullet? Thanks for the help I am looking forward to the responses. I believe the can I got is old, it has on the label 'New' and the lot # is in yellow and it is ug 14 03 s 3 lot 25118, so I am guessing this is a good lot?

I shot some 10X in my 6ppc a couple weeks ago just to see how it shoots and it performed well. I loaded 27 to 28grains and had best performance accuracy wise with 27.5 and 27.8 grains. I was loading 322 and 133 and 10X shot as well as either of those on that particular day. I would have gone up some more but the wind started blowing my wind flags down, so I loaded up and left, would have been hard to make good decision on a accuracy load in those conditions. You should load and shoot a couple 3 round groups at about 26.5 and go up from there. Another powder that my ppc likes is AA 2230. I am going to try some X-terminator next time out. I have come to the conclusion that there are a lot of good powders out there and it doesn't hurt to have a back up plan with the way powder availability is getting in my area, plus its just a good way to break up the monatony of just sending bullets down range.
