Hodgdon Benchmark Smokeless Gun Powder

Looking for Hodgdon Benchmark powder? As the name implies, this Extreme Extruded propellant was developed specifically for precision cartridges, ideally suited for benchrest and small varmint calibers like the 6mm PPC, 22 PPC, 6mm BR, .223 Remington, and .222 Remington. It also performs superbly in .204 Ruger and with light match bullets in .308 Winchester.

With small, easy-metering granules, competitors will love how Hodgdon Benchmark powder flows through progressive presses — a real advantage for high-volume benchrest and varmint shooters who value consistency across every charge thrown. As always, never exceed the loads displayed in your reloading guide, never mix two powders regardless of type or brand, and never substitute smokeless powder for black powder or a black powder substitute. For the full official load data, see Hodgdon’s reloading data center.

If you’re loading a different application entirely, our Hodgdon H335 or BLC2 may be worth a look for medium-capacity cartridges.
