ETR7 is CSB1...lots of data

[bangerjim]

From what I read in the OTHER ETR7 thread (the original one), many people on here have bought it and really like it.

I sure do! And will buy more when I need it.

[CASTER OF LEAD]

Well for those looking for an example of range results concerning ETR7 here is just a taste of what has worked for me.
454 210 RNHP over 5.5 Gr of ETR7 out of my SR1911 w/ 5" bbl . I shot 20 rounds with no leading ,mid range recoil, cycles & feeds well,this is a very clean shooting powder.
Almost forgot, all boolits listed in this post have been T/L one time with BLL then into lubri-sizer lubing with Ben's Red. Gotta give Ben Props for these great lubes.
Second test load is for .38/.357 ,.358 150 SWC over 4.5 Gr. ETR7 out of my Taurus .357, shot 50 of these. Excellent plinking round,or for a new shooter. Soft recoil, zero leading, super accurate. These are just my findings & i will post more as i find them. Hope this Helps those who are looking for start loads to try. Good Shooting , Roger

we need to get a CSB-1 database going! Maybe like CastPics or an access database we can share

[bench_rest]

Do NOT use ANY load information posted in the table below.
Loads provided for illustration purposes ONLY.

That said, I've been playing around with CSB-1 since March of this year. All loads worked up with QuickLOAD - Some of the predicted velocities predate the software update that included CSB-1, so they're based off Universal.

Velocities taken at 10' w/ Pro Chrono.

Again, DO NOT use any of these loads!

So why post the chart??????? You KNOW someone will print it out and use it as gospel. After all, it was stated on here.................and this IS the internet, right?!?!?!?!? Gotta be the absolute truth!

What's the big whoop with "7" load data?????? Just use TiteGroup or Universal as they say on their site. I use it in 9, 38, 357, 40, 45ACP, & 45LC with excellent results just using my TiteGroup load data. All PC'd.

Play around from there is you so wish.

Excellent powder!

That made me laugh a bit

Guess not including the OAL was waiver enough

And I agree, excellent powder for mid range loads!

Oh, and welcome to the forum!

I got 8 Pounds ETR7 while back I like it I can reload .38SPL/.357 .45Colt .45ACP .40Smith Wesson 10MM and 9mm yes it does some shot gun 2 3/4 shells I have not used it for that It is an awesome all around powder I use for my plinking ammo
$165 yup tax, tags, delivery and Hazmat for 8 pounds that was a while back Trump was still in office if you want, need speed this is not your powder, I believe that was their only issue folks wanted 1200 fps on the best days I got 1000 fps, As I am not a competition shooter 980 fps across the board served my interest... loading_data_ETR7_Exp_Ind.pdf
