I used to buy greendot in the 8# kegs & used it in alot of different loads. some of the best loads I found for it was:

30-06 loads: I used to use a lyman cast bullet 311467 with 13gr of greendot. Had excellent accucary with that load. I used to use that load to practice my service rifle positions at 100yds on reduced target.

20ga: Used 13.5gr with winchester aa cases & waa20wad with 7/8oz of shot. That was an excellent skeet load for me.

38spl: Used 2.5gr with lymans 35891 148gr wadcutter bullet. Accurate mouse fart target load.

44spl; Used 4.8gr with a lyman 429421 bullet. Used to use this load in a charter arms bulldog.

44mag: Used 9gr with a lyman 429421 bullet. A good all around load.

45acp: Used 4.8gr load again with a lyman 452374 bullet. Another good target load.

I found greendot to be a excellent powder that's extremely versatile. I'm sure that you'll find a load that works for you with it.

Good luck & enjoy
