Blue Dot Review
I found Blue Dot to be an excellent powder for 45 ACP, 45 super, and 10 mm. It meters well and I get good velocities, especially using heavier bullets. My best load is using Blue Dot behind a 255 grain 45 super. At first I was getting a lot of unburnt powder after a discharge, then I started using mag primers, that seemed to help. Blue Dot burns clean and it's a good deal for the price.
