[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 1620737, member: 109862"] asking for your opinions and experiences regarding differences between single and double base propellants. The double base (nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin, the alliant reloader series, the new imr enduron powders) in theory are capable of higher muzzle velocities across the board but the single base (all the old school Hodgdon and imr powders - 4064, 4350, 4831, 7828, h1000) should in theory be capable of tighter sd and es numbers simply because their simpler and therefore almost certainly more uniform. Is there actually any difference on either front in your experience? Accuracy, velocity, consistency... [/QUOTE]
