This notice has been around for a long time. I'm surprised you haven't noticed. Time to pull some bullets my friend.

My 657 is one of my favorites.

Currently Alliant doesn't list Blue Dot for .41 magnum loads.
They do state Blue Dot is a good powder for magnum handgun loads. That probably doesn't mean reduced loads either .
I think they know more about their products than other handload data by others

I doubt Alliant recommends Blue Dot for ultra reduced loads in bottle necked big game rifle cartridges either.

But it sure works well.

People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
