I have been using the Shockey gold also and I'm going to stick with it. The only problem with it is its avialibility of it I have to go all the way to Maine to get it and I don't get up there but every 3 months or so. I was there Sunday and they were all out (figures right). Have you found much difference between the 2F and the 3F I really want to try the 3F as the 2f will not pour from my flask or my powder mesurer as the granuals are too big.
