Also some of the new to me powders need to be near max to perform and show inconsistent velocities with large swings for the same powder charge in lower charge weights.
The older stand by powders may be what I'm looking for.
The 165gr-180gr are for hunting so they need to be dependable and accurate.


You're worrying too much if you believe over 95% is necessary.


He must have read somewhere on the web that you had to have at least 95% case fill???? I agree with mathman, it's not necessary...
