[QUOTE="Gunpoor, post: 1420161, member: 8358"] I look to find a powder that gives somewhere in the neighborhood of 88% capacity (+/-) for the bullet I am wanting to shoot, because more often than not that is where I find the best load. Just because the burn rate is similar between two powders doesn't mean they will react the same. Substitution of powders should only be tried where there is reputable data to back it up. BTW DJ, why are you trying to find something different when your load shoots so good? Why don't you just buy an 8 pound jug of IMR 4831, even if you have to order it on-line? Just my 2 cents worth.
