It can be done if all the guns are relatively alike in their powder demands.
Example: If you had a .270, a .280, a 7mm Mag, and a .30-06 you might be able to feed them all the same powder......but those are mostly redundant calibers too.
If you have a .223, a .260, a .30-06, and a .375 H&H you'll probably be unhappy with one powder for them all.
I buy H414, H335, and H4831 in 8 pound cans and that takes care of most of my rifles.
I understand the concept well....I've worked hard on it.....but it just don't seem to work that way at all.
Bite the bullet and stock a separate powder for each gun. One size just don't fit all...add in shotguns and handguns now.....you're likely gonna lose on that goal.
I try to do the same, I have loads worked up for the 06, 6.5x55, 257 Rob and 307 using 748 and H380. I also like I4350 for all except I don't use it for the 307. Depending on what your shooting a medium speed powder should work for what you want to do. That's why I'll use I4350 or H380 for most. The only powder that I use exclusively is 748 for the 223.

Just look at the parallels of the Nazi regime and the Obama Administration amazingly similar arent' they.
I can pretty much reload all of my and my wife's smokeless powder guns with IMR 4350 and IMR 4064 ('06, 7-08, 7-mag, .243), and if I really put my mind to it, I could probably work on some new loads and narrow it down to one powder for all except my .22 hornet, which I use IMR 4227 for. I'm a big fan of the IMR powders! Been using them for over 30 years with much success and zero failures!

Oh How I wish!!! I must have 20 diffrent powders I use depending on what being loaded at the time. I've pretty much got all my pistol loads down to W231 but the rifles and contenders are a diffrent story, seems like each caliber wants to be diffrent in what it likes best so I gotta feed them all something diffrent. Oh well.

I load for around 15 different calibers and in some cases I might load two or three different powders for one caliber. Short of counting them I couldn't tell you how many different ones I use .
I use alot of 4064 and 4895 for .308, 30-06, 8mm
other calibers I pretty much use a seperate powder for.

4831sc for .270, 30-06, and .338 as close as I can come. I have a 7.62x54R, but have not found brass and or tried to reload it. Would seem to like this powder as well!
