we are full time house hunters but i still stop at sporting goods stores on our travels and check, so in Glasgow Montana last summer i staved of starvation for another 245 shots finding a lone pound of CFE223, this is the second time I've found a treasure, in early 2021 in Ponderay ID at a North 40 I found 600 Nosler 32 gr non leads which really helped me stay legit in Ca last spring, too bad i never saw a game warden.

CFE 223 was THE powder that got me my best groups. BLC-2, IMR 4895 and Vihtavuori N130 has also worked well. I was only able to find a pound too, but am on the lookout for more. I have a couple of pounds of Pro-Varmint that I haven't tried yet, but will soon.
Good luck.

CFE 223 has been my best powder in the 204R and a few other cartridges I use very often. But the way powder supply is, I will use what I have left very cautiously on some for serious critter/paper shooting.
I will find and use some of the odd ball powders I have around, with some to spare the CFE 223 and use those for some of the plinking around on rocks and silly stuff. But like some of you, always on the look out for some of the powders that I really like.

Just picked up a pound of CFE 223, haven’t loaded any .204 with it yet but it sounds like it’s a good powder.
