    I've been considering adding these to my stores but not sure where they'll shine. I've read that the 2000-MR is great for both the 308 and 223. Also saw that N133 is one of the most popular powders in Europe for 55gr 223 loads. Anyone have first hand experience with these ? Your thoughts?

    I've used N133 for 69gr 223 loads, but you have plenty of less expensive powders that work just as good. VV isn't something I would normally choose for a 55gr FMJ plinking load.

    I have a few 8lbers of TAC and it does well enough but I found someone local unloading these 2 at under $30/lb seemed like a great price. Figured adding an 8lb jug of each would give me enough to do some development and crank out a few rounds. If it's better with heavies then I'll pump out some 69gr smk or Hornady rounds

    I get great results with MR 2000 in my .223 target rifle. I'm shooting Berger 80.5 Full Bore pills out of a 7 twist barrel with great accuracy.

    I use N133 in my 6PPC pushing 68 grain flat base. A lot of the bench rest gurus swear by it.
