[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1196483, member: 2736"] I would have to agree that 33 is not the same as 22 but Don't believe anything you hear and only half of what you read. This is the reason that I would like to see a powder burn rate chart comparing "All" of the Alliant powders to other powders. Having load data for Alliant powders is not enough for the Reloader, especially if he has wildcats and is looking for different powders that have close to the same burn rate. I guess they don't want you to compare there powder to others.(For obvious reasons). I personally wont use "Any" powder unless I have a good comparison with other powders while working up loads for a first time wildcat Because there are so many variables that could make it dangerous. I like there powders, but want to be able to compare them to other powders to get the best overall performance. Some times a simple change to a slightly faster or slower powder will make all the difference in SD's and accuracy. There is no one perfect powder, and we need the ability to be able find the best brand and burn rate of powders for max performance. Heat sensitivity can be a very important factor, but sometimes you have to go with the best powder for the cartridge and forgo the advantages of heat stable powders and make allowances for the change due to temperature. If someone can get a good/current Alliant powder burn rate chart comparing it to others please post it for all to see. This chart should also have all of the latest powders they make. Burn rate charts are not linear, but they will tell you if you are in the ballpark where to start based own other powders in the same class and burn rate. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
