H870 was imported [mil-surp] (I think) US869 is as close as hodgdon could get to reproducing it. so if you didn't like H870, I'm afraid US869 won't help ya much. ever give ramshot a go? its double base, but looks extruded, but heard good things about it, but I heard alot of praise for re-22 also and its not ll that.

I had several pounds of RL22 that was pure magic. Then I got a pound recently and everything is different. Lost up to 100fps. Accuracy went from 0.5MOA to little over 1MOA. Maybe its the weather, maybe its me. But Alliant powders seem so inconsistent. I had simular thing with RL25.

H1000 seems to be the powder I love the most for RUM's, and STW's.
