    Powder burning rate chart

    I found this chart and found it helped with some obsolete powders I have. It's worth a look.

    Thanks for the link.

    For those of you that have some old Hodgdon Trap 100, it's the same powder as W-452AA

    I may be blind, but where does GM-3 Vectan fit?

    Thanks for this link. Straight to the bookmarks. This is the most updated chart I have seen in a while. Even has the vectan powders I am experimenting with, well the A1 at least. The Ba7.5 doesn't seem to be in there.

    Nice chart indeed. But no Alliant sport pistol. That has been a mystery lol. I like the powder. Just curious where it comes in at.

    I have a good suply of vectan ba 7.5 and its hard to find it on ANY of the burn rate charts, this one included.
    Most folks see a firearm as rifle, pistol, shotgun, ect.... I see a canvas.

    Check the burn chart on Western Powders site. It lists the powders very differently not in a series but in ~equivalencies. Much more useful, IMHO.
