Hello,
I am looking for any subsonic load info for bolt actions or single shots with 180gr bullets and fast burning powders(unique, red dot, bullseye, trailboss, etc.)
Thanks!

Thanks for the link, I found some loads that are close to 180, it should give me a starting place.
Do you find any powder to be cleaner than the other in the 180gr and up range?
I will be trying some loads with the Rainier 180s and will post my results.

Just speaking from loading for pistols, for me Bullseye was cleaner than Unique (and meters better too).

Accurate # 5 also works well in this application, with charge weights similar to unique.

Thought I had some but went down and checked and mine are 150s. I remember picking up 100 of em on sale at the LGS a few years ago.
They are great in the RARR. Mine are 960fps with Unique.

Vihtavuori N105 is very clean, and very quiet. I haven't loaded 180's with it, but It worked great with 208 to 220 grain bullets.
