I view titegroup the same as any fast, high density powder. Why is it more dangerous than Bullseye or clays or 231? I have not read any good arguments for why it is more "dangerous" than other popular fast powders. The load range is small for all the fast powders, not just titegroup.
I have also read about how hot it burns and how it doesn't do well with lead. I guess I've just been lucky, but I've burned thru ~8lbs of it and 98% of it has been with 9mm and 45ACP lead loads. Has been a great powder for me, no more leading than any other powder. Proper size and speed seem to be a bigger factor.
Titegroup is good stuff, far as I can tell. Pay attention to what you're doing. You should be doing this during all reloading applications.
