[QUOTE="Koda_, post: 2722944, member: 121268"] Hodgdon lists that as slightly slower burn rate than their 4350. [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.lasc.us/BurnRatePrint.htm[/URL] This is the mystery to me learning to load Hammers. I spend hours sifting thru user data and forum posts, somehow I picked H4350 because it was faster than the IMR4831 I have on hand. But Im only safely getting a tad over 3100fps from a fast twist 26in bbl and then I pressure out. I feel like there is some burn rate guideline Im missing out on, if faster is better then can I use A2520 or CFE223 for my 280AI? It seems like its not so simple as to keep moving up a burn rate chart but Im not certain what guideline exists in choosing the better powder for a particular rifle/caliber other than randomly picking one from published load data.
