[QUOTE="shphtr, post: 1055054, member: 6162"] I chronograph all my loads even when working up different loads. There can be and usually are variances between different lots of the same powder - usually between 25 and 75 fps, but on one occasion I documented a 250 fps difference. The different vel's you might get with different lots of powders may or may not make a difference in your particular load. To try and obviate this predicament I TRY to buy all my powder in 5 - 8 lb jugs. Of course this is not as easy as in the past. In addition, once I find an optimal load that I am happy with, when ever I have to use a different powder lot number I just load to the known velocity for the predetermined optimal load. [/QUOTE]
