[QUOTE="sfdoc2000, post: 2174960, member: 76742"] Burn rate charts only give you a relative burning rate of powders, ie, one burns faster than another, but how much faster or slower? I have used Quickloads for four years now and that is a great computer simulation for internal ballistics. It has really helped me pick out what I think would be the best powder to use in the calibers and bullets I am using. It does mean I may have to trade or wait for the powders I want to use to become available. It will also tell me the limitations of what powders I may have available at the time in terms of chamber pressures, muzzle velocities and barrel dwell times for best predicted accuracy. For me it has been a money saver, not wasting my time trying out various powders and loads that may not be the best suited for the rifles I am load developing. [/QUOTE]
