I've used a lot of Red Dot over the years. It is, by far, my favorite powder for moderate 12 gauge loads for clay sports.

I did try it in a couple of pistol loads once -- 9mm and .38 Spl. It was unbelievably filthy.

I'm simply not finding the same results that you are, HSmith. Clays might have been a bit cleaner for me, but it wasn't anything that I could identify readily or that made a huge impression on me, so I switched back to the known entity that had provided, and which continues to provide, excellent service.

I'll dig it out again and give it another try, though, and see what I think.
