    powder choices

    I notice a lot of new reloaders and people starting to reload a new bullet that have questions. I hope you can reach these sites and the info helps. I find reloading books will differ from these sites also.

    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

    Agree 100%.
    Some chase the last 30fps. But wow, they often pay big time.

    The common/popular powders are popular for good reason.
