98Z5V Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 Good to know, if your favorite powder isn't available - easy to find a similar substitute. Burn Rates_121211.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planeflyer21 Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 One thing to remember about these…a powder's position changes with who did the chart. While they may be similar, you still have to go through load workup and experimentation, when substituting another powder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mineralman55 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) In addition, I prefer to use charts such as these. These charts give a better perspective of the relative burn rates of various powders. Start low and build up as always. Also, I like to graph up the various powders with my chosen bullets. This helps when you don't have a chronograph. It also helps during these times when your favorite powders aren't available and you have to look at substitutes. http://gsgroup.co.za/burnrates.html http://www.accuratepowder.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/burn_rates.pdf http://www.adi-powders.com.au/handloaders-guide/equivalents.asp Edited February 17, 2014 by mineralman55 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
