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

Thats great I have many different versions of this chart but this is the first one that has Vectan powders which I have been using more and more lately so that helps, thanx.
Thanks for the link.

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.

Great chart. Thanks.
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.
