There's lots of powders to choose from to do that, but to get consistent burn/pressure/velocity, I think you can eliminate anything slower than Blue Dot.

AA#5 might be worth a try.


Velocity in the 800-1000 range will work, but precision will be the determining factor in where it winds up. I suspect but do not know at present it's running in the 650 range with the WW540, maybe a bit slower with the 2400.
