Lovex equivalent S065 (S065-01 in the older manual) - single-base extruded. Narrow, short-cut grain that Shooters World says still flows consistently through volumetric measures despite being a stick powder. Contains flash suppressant. Shooters World deliberately keeps the Lovex designation on the label so European Lovex data and US SAAMI data can be cross-referenced; the name-to-number table is published on the Shooters World Lovex reloading-guide page.

Slow rifle; slightly faster than Hodgdon H4350 by Shooters World's own comparison.

Verify the charge, not just the recipe
Good data gets you a safe starting point. It does not tell you what actually went into the case on stroke 340 — a bridged measure, a double charge, a squib. That is what an RCM Laser Powder Check is for.
