Accurate No 7 is a double base, ball propellant originally developed for high intensity cartridges. Originally introduced to reloaders in 1983, No. 7 has become a popular powder for IPSC shooters. It is also a good choice for magnum handgun cartridges when slightly less than full power loads are preferred. No. 7 is an excellent choice for high performance semi-auto handguns such as the 357 Sig, 38 Super, and 40 S&W. No. 7 is also a cost effective solution in larger magnum handgun calibers.
Warnings from the Manufacturer:
- Do not exceed the loads displayed in the reloaders guide.
- Never mix any two powders regardless of type, brand, or source.
- Never substitute any smokeless powder for Black Powder or any Black Powder substitute.

I use this powder for 40 S&W, 10mm and 45 ACP. It always gives me excellent results and very clean even in lower pressure 45 ACP w/ 185 grain loads. Not always most economical with how slow it is/volume required but with how tight my speed spreads are and how clean it burns I’m glad I bought plenty when I did. I often try the “classic” powders for plinking to find a more economical options but keep coming back to Accurate for ease of metering, clean burning, and repeatable performance lot after lot.

My father-in-law and myself both use this powder in our reloading. I get good results and it’s pretty consistent.
