If I had some I would use it for sure.
I have read it is less temp sensitive and you get more velocity with a bit less pressure.
When I buy a powder for test purposes i want at least 3 pounds of it with same lot number.
I like my IMR 4064 so much I got 24 lbs of it with the same lot number.
Some reading for you below.

I have not tried 16 but have tried 15,19, 22,23,26, Mr4000 and Varmint. I luvs me some Swiss made double base as they are SMOKIN fast. I'm not a hole puncher and looking for max energy on game, flat trajectory with reasonable accuracy. Alliant has always be my favorite go to powders. Even when other people considered the older numbers temp unstable did'nt bother me. I don't hunt in the summer anyway.
Also after metering these you will feel like chunkin a can of IMR stick powder when you go back to those after working with this stuff, Stuffs a breeze to measure.
To each his own I guess.
