From what I know at the moment it was supposedly a do all powder that would go in 223 / 7mm08 and 6.5 creed which covers all his non magnum needs… he still is adamant that it’s used out there in this cal so someone somewhere might be up to something with it in this caliber even with the manufacturer pointing towards at the very least that it’s not the go

People get powder numbers mixed up all the time, ive even heard storys from mates, that have gone into gun stores, asked for 2208, the staff member said, "oh it doesn't look like we have any of that on the shelf, but hey here's some 2207, which is close its only one number away, that will work" FFS!!!!

Seriously, just because someone may work in a firearms store doesn't necessarily mean they know much about it all.

Ive overheard some terrible advice being given by staff in various gun shops over the years.
