IMR 3031 is a relatively long stick powder, like 4350 and 4831. Very useful powders, but also known for hanging up in powder measures. Throwing a charge deliberately light and then trickling in the last few grains is a slow process, but it does allow for accurate charge weights.
Reloder 7 is also a stick powder, but shorter sticks, and considerably easier to throw accurate charges from a measure.
