That new and Improved cleaner burning package has been around for a while
I am not getting into a powder war, Unique is fine for certain uses, that said
It is is "dirty" (I really don't care)
It don't meter as well as other powders
It is spiky at certain loads
It only works well at near max loadings
Maybe it is great in shotguns, I don't know.
But other than that whats not to like?
In the many "if you only had one powder in the world" threads. Unique would not be my choice
I am more of a Hodgdon guy and their online data is way better than Alliant
But everyone has their favorites.
I just loaded 100 rounds of 357 mag and 45 Colt with the darn stuff.
