IMR4198 is clean and accurate for me. Ball powders seem to fowl the barrel quicker for me.

Wow Savagescout, that suprises me! What primer have you been using if you don't mind my asking?

I stick with CCI BR4, CCI 450's & Rem 7 1/2's which are all fairly hot.

I use winchester primers standard small rifle. I end up running more patches through the gun before it is clean than I do with the 10x and other powders I use with that said I use varget in more guns that I reload for than any other powder except AA5744 for reduced reloads. I use a powder 100% based on accuracy not velocity or how clean it is.

Ill have to try loading up a few more RL 10x loads to verify my results. Although Based on my limited use of RL 10x I found it to be among the worst I have worked with for clean up & accuracy was so-so. Another favorit (best accuracy results & easy clean up has been a bit of a bonus)of mine has been H4198 in the 221 & 223.
