Ramshot Powder

Has anyone loaded 7/8 or 1 oz using Ramshot Competion powder. Hogdon lists some nice loads on their web site and also have it for sale. How does it meter when compared with Clay Dot or 700x? I load Remington Nitros, STS, and GC only.

Thanks

I started reloading a year ago last December. As a Christmas gift to myself I bought a MEC 9000 GN. The only thing I have reloaded is Winchester AA's both red and gray, and have been using Ramshot Competion powder. I have loaded 1 oz and 1 1/8. At start up Competion was most all I found on shelves and stayed with it. I do have other powders now on hand but the MEC is set up for R/C. Sory I have not loaded anything but....
