Adding W244 as comparable to W231/HP-38. Since Winchester/Hodgdon is likely trying to improve W231/HP-38's performance, my guess is W244 will be slightly slower burning to produce higher velocities and be less temperature sensitive for match shooters looking to meet minor power factor year round.

Looks like Alliant has blended Promo for better metering. Promo used to look like Red Dot with round granules added. Recent containers of Promo show all round granules (No more Red Dot flakes) and C-H 502 micrometer powder measure metered Promo with .12 gr variance (same as W231/HP-38) and Pro Auto Disk is metering with less than .2 gr variance with most drops less than .15 gr variance (down from .2-.3 gr+) - https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/c-h-502-micrometer-powder-measure-10-drops.834894/

Alliant Sport Pistol was very "comparable" to W231/HP-38 using same powder charge for 9mm 115 gr FMJ to produce accuracy - https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/new-alliant-sport-pistol.816514/page-5#post-10598431

Many match shooters are claiming Sport Pistol as the next N320 that burns cleaner at lower cost - http://forums.brianenos.com/topic/258329-sport-pistol-powder/
