    Trail boss just for kicks.

    W760/H414 and Win Supreme 780 can both be replaced by say 4350 and 7977 in my 243
    2208 Works both 358 win and 223 but could be replaced by Varget(same) or 4895 or BL-C2

    2209 and 2208. You can run pretty much everything with those two I have found. Nowadays I use a lot of black powder...
