I have been reloading for my 300 Win Mag for a few years now, and I have only used Hodgdon H1000, but it's out of stock and so is 4831sc. I am also planning on switching from 200 gr eldx to 200 gr accubond bullets.

Does anybody have any recommendations for what powder to use in place of a Hodgdon product?

Thanks,

I've had good results with Reloder 22 and 25 in a couple different rifles.

My local walmart and Bimarts have had RE 26, H1000 and H4831SC. Its coming back, but real slow.

Just search up Nosler and hornady reloading data and pick something off the list that you can find.

I used RL-22 for years before trying H-1000, and it is good. It may not be as temp consistent as H-1000 but I never had any issues hitting where I was aiming with it.

I surely would be sticking with a stable powder like H1000, especially if you have loads for it...should work nicely with the 200’s as well. It can be found all over, especially if you’re willing to order.

I personally haven’t tried any powder for my 300RUM other than H1000. I’ve been pretty lucky to find it in stock here locally. I usually grab a little every time I’m out.
