Well... My title on this thread may have been a bit misleading. My frustration is not with its performance but rather with the lack of data. It seems that since the introduction of the Enduron powders a few years ago their parent company (Hodgdon) whom most of us look to for loading data for their powders has been largely negligent producing new data for these wonderful and somewhat more available powders than their venerable "H" line e.g. H4350 H4831 etc.
Looking at their burn rate chart there are prime examples of where they can likely duplicate performance with other powders, strangely the data to do just that is seemingly lacking. You can glean a little of the data by doing a quick google to find info like this.....
..... you then select what cartridge you want data that features that powder and voila you can find a little more data than their standard load data pages offer but frankly it's a fraction of what I'd have expected considering the amount of time the Enduron powders have been around.
Am I looking in the wrong place(s)?
