buy a pound of different powders and test them and find good loads for them in different cartridges that I shoot. That way, if I ran short of my favorites, and one of the other powders was available, I could buy and immediately have a load for it.

I did that too. Have lots of data now.

I am surprised you let #5 go and prefer the harshness of Power Pistol

I agree with your characterization. It was a tough choice. AA#5 is great stuff. I really like it. However I find #5 just a touch fast; other than 9mm, it falls just a little short when making potent semi-auto rounds. Power Pistol does this with ease. But that by itself wasn't the show-stopper. Availability was. Over these last couple+ years, Power Pistol has been much easier to get ahold of. Other than MidSouth a couple weeks back, I haven't seen AA#5 since June '13.
