    I havn't tried other powders and maybe i can improve on these but they shoot well and go fast enough so i might not even try
    Excellent. I wouldn't bother with other powders if it shoots well. ADI is usually easy to get.
    I was keen on a 338 Federal for my bush gun but the 308 was just easier. If I ever have to replace the barrel (which I doubt) I might go that way.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.
