[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 1679389, member: 61747"] 4831 and h1000 show same velocity for max charge according to hornday website. I am currently testing RL26, retumbo, and h1000 with 147's and 140's. I am using Hornady's data for reference on max charges and doing velocity ladder testing to max. You can make any of these powders work well IMHO. Right now H1000 in my rifle has a large node 56-57.5. While testing that group of test charges shot 2" at 350. Not that it really means a lot but it was interesting that the ES in charge range was only 30FPS. On another note, just my opinion, I could care less about 100 yard groups. I have had and have rifles shoot bugholes at 100 and go to **** at 500 plus. I put very little credibility in my rifles at zero range. I only care about the SD/ES and accuracy at long ranges. I know we all like to stack em, makes us feel good, but it really is not a major indicator of what it will do beyond point blank range. [/QUOTE]
