Default Another new powder...

Has anyone heard anything about this?

http://gunsandammomag.com/cs/Satellite/IMO_GA/Story_C/IMR+White+Hots

They're not giving us a whole lot of information, but I guess it's not coming out til spring 2009. After reading all the range reports you guys have been posting about BH209, I wonder how this can top it...

I don't think we need anymore hard to ignite, overpriced subs. But what I think hardly matters.

Well like all companies, they want a piece of the pie. I personally am glad to see all of these new powders on the market. Because anyone who has studied marketing and business knows, the more choices in the marketsnormallyproduces competition. And competition produces price standards. If they have to lower their price to sell more of their product, the only one who benefits is the consumer.

So we will see new products and bigger better claims of what their powders can do. I will stick with some of the old stand by powders until I can prove to myself that something different is better. It took me a year or two just to accept Triple Se7en (which is really a good powder).

I agree cayugad- even though I'm not going to rush out and buy the "latest and greatest" new powder, all the different options increases the competition, which is only good news for us. It means better products and better prices.

Black horn is better any way. This stuff is pre measured and more expensive and does almost exactly the same thing. Lee

I'm wondering if that White Hot stuff sucks up water based upon the packaging in tubes.
