Best Alliant Powder?

[AlphaMike11]

Mid-South is having a sale on Alliant powder with free hazmat.

What is everyone's favorite powder and why?

I see they have BE-86 but not sure if I want that since I have never tried it.
Leaning towards unique or bullseye.

Also might get some blue dot.

(I tend to load a little of everything)...

Opinions Wanted!

Blue Dot!!! My favorite by far.

Unique. Added plus is loading subs in rifle cases.

Get what you think you want to try and fill out the order with Unique. I must have 20 lbs on hand and don't think that's enough.

I may add some unique to the order.
How does it burn? clean?

What about case fill?
I like using the bullseye but it is so small i worry about doubles & squibs.
Would like to be able to "see" the charge down in the case...

Thanks all!

Unique is slightly more bulky than bullseye, but you can still overcharge.

As always, use care when reloading.

SR4759 is a bulky powder for rifle cases, I use a lot of it.

Unique burns a little dirty sometimes but I have had great success with it in lead, low pressure rifle loads. Even 45/70 Government. I've not found it to be position sensitive.

unique is the way to go. lots of use for cast lead in rifle and pistol.

I buy bullseye because it was recommended when I started loading. I have only used it and titegroup. I only load 38 and 9 and those two make things easy. I'm following this because there may be something better.

Blue Dot!!! My favorite by far.

What do you usually load with the BlueDot?
Can you load .40 with it?
I think it will also work with .357...
