Nice to see some of the positive reviews about other powders. Never can tell what is real and what is hype.
I'm seeing IMR 8208 XBR pop up alot lately, and with mostly good things said.
IMR 4007 SSC is a new one for me, but seems to have a sweet spot in the calibers I shoot. Which is all I need, another excuse to try another powder.
I can say though that I have had success with Varget in .223, .22-250 and .243 to name a few. By success, I mean accuracy results. Hard for me to knock it when I've experienced what it can do.

IME. 8208xbr is along the same burn as IMR-4895, but just a bit faster.
It works real well in the small cases, but in the medium cases you will need to work up to max carefully. It seems to spike real fast at the top end. [22-250 Rem]
In the 243 win, 80 to 85gr bullets are about tops.

I'll see what it does with a Nosler 55 gr hollow point.
