Hodgdon VARGET®

Hodgdon VARGET® is an extruded propellant in Hodgdon’s Extreme series, built for handloaders who value consistent performance across hot and cold conditions. Its small extruded grains support uniform metering, while its higher energy can provide improved velocities compared with other powders in its burning-speed class.

Varget ignites quickly and burns clean. Hodgdon describes this combination as translating to superb accuracy, higher scores, and more clean, one-shot kills. At the bench, those are practical qualities: reliable powder handling, clean-burning performance, and a propellant designed for precision-minded rifle loading.

For competitive shooters, Varget is described as the perfect powder for .223 Remington with heavy bullets in match applications. It also delivers outstanding performance and velocity in popular cartridges including .22-250 Remington, .308 Winchester, .30-06, and .375 H&H, along with many more applications supported by published load data.

Made in Australia, Hodgdon VARGET is offered in 1 lb. and 8 lb. containers. As with any propellant, use only current published Hodgdon data for your specific cartridge, bullet, and components, and follow all label precautions.
