I hear you, that's pretty much why I decided on most of my loads being with I4350 or I4064, can load everything from the 243 up to the big magnums. Tried H4831SC, RE19 and 22, with them either the accuracy or velocity weren't there on some cartridges. I settled on the two main powders and bought 8lb jugs. The only other powder I use is 748 for the 223 and 223AI, those are my ground hog rigs so they don't get shot very often. Found there load and honestly if I put 40 rds down the pipe on each of the over the past two years I'm lucky. Don't get out to the farmer's cornfield's very often and last year he started allowing the mining company to start taking core samples in a couple of his fields and that just drove the GH's into hiding.
