Don't overlook 700X it's a great powder and is always on the shelf when other powders are unavailable. Don't let all the bad metering threads scare you off give it a chance. I've never had problems when using my Lyman 55's, give 700X a try.

I find 700-X meters very consistently in the Lyman 55 when a powder baffle is used. You can (more or less) use the same loads as Bullseye, but no need to as there are plenty of reloading recipes for 700-X available. BTW, Unique and Bullseye use exactly the same formulation, but the flakes of Unique are cut thicker, making it more slowly burning. I have been using quite a bit of 700-X recently for .38 Super and .44 Special, and I have less than a pound remaining.
