[QUOTE="HuntFarther, post: 1070730, member: 59584"] Here is something that I know about this. Maybe of help and might not be. I used it in a ai and a custom throat gun. Before you go into using this, you in my experience have to be able to go up at least 2-5 grains in powder capacity. And this works way better with a given load charge and powder. I have heard of gains of 100+ fps but seem the norm is 20-50 fps. I know rl 33 and retumbo gave me no improvements with coated over naked. But then I went to h1000 and the first thing that happened was I went from 2955 fps to 2875 fps. And to gain back my velocities I went up a grain and that put me at 2940, and went up 3.5 more grains to find pressure. But adding two grains gave me 3003 fps. I only had 50 coated bullets. So these are all gone and I went to clean this back out and shoot my old 2955 load and even after 35 rounds and soaking the barrel I am running 2875 avg. I have no idea how long it takes to get this out, but maybe cheaper and quicker to just coat the bullets. I have a curiosity of what happens when the bullet tips are full of this stuff, if they open the same or not? [/QUOTE]
