Description
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.

Excellent for AR15
Loaded four different combinations of powders/charges with 64 grain .224 Sierra Gamechanger bullets to build a round for my AR. CMV 10.5" barrel, 1:7 twist, basic A2 flash hider. I started with the Varget rounds and I'm glad I did. The third set of five was 64.1 grains and was .80 MOA 100 yards, 2260 fps. I loaded five confirmation rounds and they were .75 MOA 100 yards. Outstanding results with Varget!! Never heard of or been able to build a round this quickly. I'll be using Varget to build rounds for my other AR's.

Varget
I changed my reloading habits in 2013 when we had high industry due to the changing political climate. Varget is stable, consistent, and works with a large range of cartridges allowing for me to have a variety of options. Thank you for shipping direct to consumers at this time.
