Although there are other smokeless reloading powders on the market, Alliant Reloader 7 Rifle Powder has a history of excellence. In addition, the powder is backed by more than 100 years of experience in manufacturing and must pass the strictest quality control checks used. Grain size and shape, along with density and chemical composition, are constantly checked. This rifle powder is the perfect choice for small-caliber varmint loads, and because it offers consistent metering, it meets demands of benchrest shooters. The powder is also great for other rifles, such as the .450 Marlin and .45-70 Government.
