[QUOTE="RD57, post: 1917491, member: 103010"] StaBall6.5 did not work well in my 270 Win Mod 70 utilizing 140 grain Nosler BTs and Fed GM210M primers. Groups were large (1.5" @ 100 yds) and the lowest ES was 90 fps utilizing Hodgdons reloading mid to max published data (other than bullet). There was more loose fouling in the barrel than other ball powders, but I'd rather have loose fouling in the bore than baked on carbon fouling. Maybe Mag Primers would help in this issue, but the lower than published velocities, large group size and bad chrono results have steered me away from using this powder. Similar results in my 220 Swift utilizing 55 - 60 grain bullets. [/QUOTE]
