[QUOTE="eklarsen, post: 1538841, member: 93902"] Hi Joe, and welcome. In order to make a heavier bullet go the same speed as the lighter bullet you are correct you would need more powder however you have to manage the pressure which is the critical element. The lower suggested amount is to keep you in a safe range and you need to heed this carefully. The heavier bullet will require a different powder charge for sure. On the COAL, are you measuring this with a micrometer? A better solution then COAL would be to measure both from the ogive as they are different bullet profiles. [/QUOTE]
