People get powder numbers mixed up all the time, ive even heard storys from mates, that have gone into gun stores, asked for 2208, the staff member said, "oh it doesn't look like we have any of that...

I'll pm

Yes exactly, myself along with other forum members have whitnessed the carnage of a 308 loaded with the wrong (fast burning) powder by mistake.

It's not pretty, and can leave permanent life...

Yes, in my experience when running heavy for cal bullets, even in short barrels you will actually get higher velocities using slower burning powders.

My thoughts are if he cannot source and cross reference load data himself in this day and age and continues to want to use a powder after it's been recommended not to.....then he probably shouldn't...
