Why all these different powders ? I think the guys were just saying what works for them. I think, right or wrong, that Clay Dot recoils more than other powders. But that's just me. He may find at the velocity and weight he wants to shoot some powders burn cleaner than others, could have less or more recoil, cost more or less, maybe easier to get, and so on. Also, if he finds a couple of powders he's happy with it'll be easier latter on if powders are hard to come by. American Select is a very nice powder along with RD, GD, Promo, and 700X. For me it's back to 700X because 12#s were given to me. Part of the fun of reloading is trying different powders and loads.
