Thread: ADI 2217 and H1000 ?

This is something I do routinely and record the velocities in my load data for future reference. Your hodgdon powder will have had two trips through the tropics and your ADI powder none. Keep your AR2217 fresh.
GPM.

Hi, I shoot both powders under my 185 bergers in the 300 win mag ( but I much prefer the H1000 ) . The load for each ( for the same performance ) is within 0.5 grain (79.0 or 79.5) hower i have never "blended " the powders . FYI , the h1000 is a relaible sub moa load , the ADI is a 50/50 call as to whether it will be a sub moa . However , i thankyou for your observations
