kneelingatlas Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 CFE Pistol is a new offering from Hodgdon which shows promise for 9 Major; I have three pounds, but haven't had a chance to load any let. I've heard of people using AA#5 and AA#7. Just look at the burn rate chart: http://www.hodgdon.com/burn-rate.html Anything from True Blue to Longshot will likely work.

BeerBaron Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 I wonder if cfe is rebranded ap100? Does it say made in Australia by any chance? Many of the hodgon powders are made in aus by adi then given new names for the us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captain037 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 800x and 3n37 are the two I tried recently . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 4756 if you have any. It's due to quit being handled by Hodgdon so if you like it I'd try to acquire a large amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aircooled6racer Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Hello: I have used Alliant Blue Dot since I bought some real cheap from a shotgunner. It works better with 121 grain bullets than the 115's I normally use. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Haven't touched it yet but I might get some test loads chrono'ed at the end of the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
