[QUOTE="MattBulic, post: 2333052, member: 120392"] So you worked at ADI, and know just about every powder that work with every cartridge, and you say that AR2208 is the "incorrect" powder for 300wm? Why then using the ADI load data book or website is there multiple listings using AR2208 in 300WM for lighter projectiles? Why would they put it there if it wasn't correct? Why is it common in the ADI load data for lighter projectiles and as you move toward heavier it switches to AR2209? Having worked there you should know right? With that logic are you saying you would use the same powder for 110gr - 230gr projectiles? If a powder is putting 3 through the same hole at 100m at speeds in excess of 3000+fps, that is a great powder, regardless of what you say it was designed for... if it works it works. And yes, after a few test shots for windage etc I can consistently hit milk and water jugs at 1000m with consistent, mild wind holding over the reticle. Are you saying I cant do that because you can't do that? 🤔 Cheers [/QUOTE]
