Nope. No problem that I've noted. I deprime the brass and toss them into an US cleaner.
When i started using it in the Grendel, SW had exactly ONE, 123 grain load for it. Now there data from 120 to 140 grain. I've been running it in Grendel for over a year but, in fairness, that has been in bolt guns. No experience with gas guns. I get the highest velocities and best accuracy in my CZ's using this powder but my 'target/off hand" load is the Nosler Custom Competition 123 grain over 30 grains. My hunting loads are doing just south of 2700 fps. These target loads get 2550 (iirc) and are accurate enough to shoot the staples out of the corners of the target. I have several thousand of these bullets so I use them for practice. My hunting loads using 120 grain Sierra Pro Hunters work as well at -10F and they do at +40F.
But I digress... Try a pound of it. Works VERY well in the 308 as well. My girl friend's 168 grain target loads are loaded with this powder.... which it probably why I have 26 pounds of it on hand. Her next loads will be using this with 175's.~Riuma
