Herco Powder

Just this week, I've seen Alliant powders on my LGS's shelf for the first time since I moved here (Idaho in March). Red Dot and Green Dot. No Herco though :(

I haven't used Herco since I first started loading in 1984. At that time, I didn't know what I was doing and my LGS had almost entirely Hercules (at the time) propellants. I bought "the spectrum" - Bullseye, Red Dot, Green Dot, Blue Dot, Herco.

Anyway, I used it and remembered it performed well; but for whatever reason, I stuck with Blue Dot (until I discovered W296 - but that's a different story) and forsaked Herco. I was a young loader. Point is, I bet Herco with 357/125 is indeed a great combination. These days, I use Power Pistol - that's my propellant of choice with 125's.

Hope you find some soon.
