[QUOTE="mitch260, post: 909745, member: 53720"] On quickloads they list a burn rate factor. A higher number indicates a faster burn rate. For example RL-17 has a burn rate factor of 0.4700, while RL-19 has a burn rate factor of 0.4500. IMR4831 has a burn rate factor of 0.4421 and H4831 has a burn rate factor of 0.4301. I would say that a spreadsheet could be made. Actually I just went back and looked at it again, and the numbers stated above only apply to the very first stages of the charge being burned. there are other factors that have different meanings in relation to the powder being burnt, but it gives you an idea anyway.
