I've not quite seen the topic directly addressed, but in a bit of a quandary as to committing to 8 lbs of 2400, when no 1 lbs "sample" is available to test load before committing fully.
I have a pound each of IMR 4198 and Accurate 5744. Alliant 2400 is available but only in 8 lbs jugs.
For 45-70 guide gun with 405 WFNGC at moderate load of 1350-1450 fps. Discuss comparative merits or downsides of 2400 v. 5744. Thanks.
