Keep the good work and get out and shoot!

I have just been looking at Reloader 16. Sounds like it has become a go to powder for this cartridge. I might buy a bottle when my 2209 is burnt up.

Interestingly, my above load is clocking marginally faster than my previous load - 41.5gr under a 140gr A max. The 147 has a pretty wicked BC, so I am not too worried about it being speed demon.
