I recently inherited an old, vintage metal can of 700-X from an estate sale. Despite its age, it smelled completely sweet and perfect. I worked up a light target load according to the modern Hodgdon safety data, and it performed identically to a brand-new bottle. That tells you everything you need to know about the stability of this formulation.

I was looking for a powder that could build low-velocity, soft-recoil loads for my wife’s 12-gauge semi-auto without causing short-cycling. Even at modest velocities, 700-X creates the perfect pressure curve to cycle the action cleanly while completely eliminating harsh shoulder fatigue. Fantastic performance.

Some fast target powders get incredibly weak when the temperature drops below zero up here in Alberta. 700-X remains completely unfazed by the cold. Fired a 100-round string during a freezing January league shoot, and the velocity and point of impact didn’t shift at all.

Because it’s a large flake powder, some basic powder drops can struggle if you rush.

If you shoot a 1911 or a target revolver, you need to try 700-X. Pushing a 200-grain lead semi-wadcutter with roughly 4.5 grains of this powder produces match-winning accuracy. It gives a soft, rolling impulse rather than a sharp snap, helping you recover your sight alignment much faster during timed stages.

Between loading bulk 12-gauge field loads for autumn birds and topping off target handgun ammunition for the winter pistol leagues, this is the one powder I never allow myself to run out of. It simplifies my reloading inventory immensely by doing multiple jobs flawlessly.

On Canadian forums, opinions are occasionally mixed about flake powders in small 9mm cases, but this stuff shines in a Pistol Calibre Carbine. It burns incredibly fast and leaves zero unburnt powder flakes down the long barrel, ensuring the bolt mechanism stays clean over high-volume range days. Easily compressed and highly uniform.

I’ve been running 700-X through my progressive loader for decades to feed my over-under for skeet and trap. For light 1 oz and 1-1/8 oz target payloads, nothing else patterns quite as consistently. It’s easy on the shoulder and gentle on the hulls, meaning I get plenty of reloads out of a single batch of brass or plastic. Truly the gold standard.
