[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1151048, member: 2736"] I don't think any powder has the same burn rate as another. Burn rate charts are for locating the closest powder to the one you are/want to use and when switching to another powder you should always start lower than what you are using and work up. just because a powder is the next one on the burn rate chart doesn't mean it is only slightly colder or hotter. There could be quite a gap between the two and it could be very close to a hotter powder next on the list. In other words the relationship is not linier. you can use the next higher or lower powder on the list but you must go by the load data for that powder. You cant substitute one powder for another by weight. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
