Notes:
97
VV N105
Shoots nice, best consistency, lowest SD. Mostly compressed loads. If you want use only one powder, choose this one. Good performance (high energy) with lighter bullets.
98
IMR 800-X
Highest performing with heavier bullets. Compressed loads. Not so easy to measure.
99
Vectan SP2
Best performing, if lighter and long bullet used (little space left in case). Otherwise not consistent - high SD.

Lovex D037.1
Very close to AA #7, used for testing. Will not use anymore in .460 Rowland.
