I am not sure about DHN's AA1680, but in the case of your AA2015 the problem is that it was manufactured in 3 different countries. Israel, Czech Republic and now in Canada. The Canadian powder is a different burn rate than the previous powders but was never changed in any load book or burn rate chart

That would figure. It's hard to trust anything put out in the load manuals as anything more than a suggestion.
