The only way of reliably finding the best load for your firearm is selecting the right mix of components. Many powders produce the same velocities, but yield very different pressures. Burn rate and powder density must be considered when beginning powder selection. Bullet weight and composition must be matched to the powder of choice. Primers introduce another variable, and of course brass. We'll show you our method for efficiently driving to a high performing load without breaking the bank.
