One Powder for Both 25-06 and 243?

[Biscuit]

I need recommendations for one powder to use for both a .243 and 25-06, using 100gr SGK for the 243 and 117SGK for the 25-06, 450 yd max range on deer and antelope.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Joel,

I've used N-165 and N-560 in both. N-160 should also work.

HTH,

Both the SGK's mentioned,are easily trumped in all regards...if only for conversation.
