[QUOTE="Engineering101, post: 1284598, member: 63138"] Pretty clear that the burn rate of your powder is faster than nominal. Powder is made to be near its nominal burn rate with around 1% moisture content and that equates to RH in the range 40 to 50% which is controlled by the powder manufacturer. If your powder is stored in an environment with humidity less than that it will dry out and burn faster. I have this issue with every powder I have since my loading room humidity tends to be around 30% in winter when the furnace is running. [/QUOTE]
