[QUOTE="eddybo, post: 242232, member: 7194"] Goodgrouper I guess I missed this post, thanks for sharing this info. Have you tried any VV560 in the 300 WSM with the 168s? If so can you compare the load to the RL17 as far as load density? How about against H4350 in general, not limited to WSM cases, as far as load density? I am playing around with long throated 308s trying to push the heavy bullets faster using slower powders. I can get about 51.5 gr of H4350 in the case, will I be able to get enough RL17 in the case to equal these pressures? QL says that it isnt possible to do this with VV560, not enough capacity, I was hoping to reach SAAMI pressures with RL 17 in a 308 case with heavy bullets, what do you think the odds of that happening are? I haven't used enough IMR 4350 or 4007 to draw any correlations as far as burn rate and bulk of this powder. I also wonder how this would burn in a 6-6.5x47 and 243AI Lapua shooting the 115s? Right now I am using VV560 around 41gr in the 6x47 and 46grs in the 243AI. Do you think RL17 will give me some relief from the heavy compression of my loads in these small cases? Right now I would compare VV560 to RL22 as being the closestin burn rate and bulk? Is RL 17 faster than RL22? , Less bulky? Thanks for any info that you are willing to share. [/QUOTE]
