[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 2776933, member: 22069"] The internet is a supporter place that seems to be fed by emotion. I HATE both of those things, so I will stop short of declaring hate for a powder, and simply take great glee in goring an Internet Sacred Cow by declaring the following: VARGET is overrated! Why do I say this? It does nothing special. There are other powders that offer the same velocity potential and temp stability characteristics, cost less, and do not have the lot-to-lot consistency problems VARGET has. The supporters line up behind it as THE must-have match powder, even in applications for which it is marginally appropriate. As usual, The supporters are know-nothings parroting internet gospel. VARGET is a jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none powder. It offers mediocre performance in a lot of applications and can be handily outperformed by other powders in every one of them. I have 20+ lbs of VARGET that I would gladly trade for something else, should someone disagree with me vehemently enough to put up or shut up. [/QUOTE]
