[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 140970, member: 7"] [ QUOTE ] I read somewhere and I can't remember where that ball powders were not good for long range, but I can't recall why? Anyone have any input on this? [/ QUOTE ] That is not true. There ARE differences in ball and extruded, but accuracy is not one of them. Ball powders are more sensitive to temperature, so velocities will vary much more with ball powders, from summer to winter. Also, ball powders burn dirtier than extruded powders. But on the positive side, they flow through powder measures like water. . [/QUOTE]
