BBI 147 and Win 231

[whiskeytango]

I've got 1k of the 147's on order from BBI and they should be here in a few days. Normally I load 115 MG's with 4.1g of TiteGroup. From all the reading I've done, TG is a bit to fast for the moly coated bullets and I don't want to deal with the aftermath. I know that folks are having good results with Solo1000 and Universal Clays with the black bullets.

Has anyone had any good experience with Win 231? I have an 8 pounder of TG and about 10 pounds of 231 and if 231 would work, that would save me from having to buy another powder.

Thanks for all of your help guys!
