    Look at the ADI site and see what powders each of the cartridges you shoot all call for with the weight bullets you want to shoot. They each have a narrow range.

    If there is an overlap in two or more ranges (e.g. 270 and 6.5 Creedmoor with both eat 2209), great. But the burn rate of all of the powders is fixed. There aren't any that have magical properties that make them flexible to use with cartridges outside of their usual ranges.

    Notable exceptions of course are powders like trail boss. 2206h can also be used to make reduced loads in just about everything. Key thing here is they're both reduced and not suitable for working up full power loads in everything.
