Blue dot powder substitute

Yup #7 is the closest. Now if someone would list a reloading recipe for shot shells it might be a great powder for it. I'm just not the person that likes experiment with explosives next to my face.

Sorry guys I'm specifically looking for 12 gage steel waterfowl loads that would be similar to using blue dot. I can find plenty of metallic loads but not for shotgun.

Alliant steel is the best powder for steel shot if you can find it IMHO I've been using it ever since they came out with it
 
Can't argue with you on Alliant
Steel powder but again it's as rare as frogs hair.
I sure Trump can put a stop to the Ukraine war and maybe Alliant powders will start coming back onto the shelves.

I haven't been able to find blue dot on the self now for quite awhile now. So I was wondering if anybody has a substitute powder that they have switched to with load data? Looking at the burn rate charts accurate #7 and #9 along with trueblue powders fall right in that range but I can't find any load data for them. I been using longshot and down to my last pound of 800x. I just have so many loads for blue dot that I wish I could find a substitute for it.
