I shot 27 lbs of AA2495 and at least as much IMR 4895 with 168's through my across the course 308 rifles.
I have bud's who swear by IMR 4064 but I don't like weighing charges. The 4895 series of powders, which includes H4895, throws much better and my short range (out to 300 yards) loads are thrown.
Recently I tried H4895 with 175's and it hammers at 600 yards.
I think H4895 is an improvement over IMR 4895 as it is one of those "extreme' powders.
I tried AA4064, a short grained 4064, I did not get as much velocity as IMR 4064, but it shot very well out to 600 yards.
I have a feeling that Varget may be the best overall 308 powder but it will take a while before I can prove that to myself.
