onlyme Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 (edited) Hi lads and lasses , just trying to use up all the powder ive got knocking about before i buy some more , the powder in question is an old tin of nobel 82 in yellow writing .... im sure it does 32 gram loads? , but just looking for a general bit of data to start a load off and work it from there , it seems to be a medium/slow speed burning powder so a guess would be 22grains with 32 gram load ? starting point it may be suited to heavier loads though much akin to hs-7... but just need something substancial to make a definitve decision on a starting point .... if anybody has any max load data also with pressures it would be super handy ! ive found inconsitant info from google, so any real world experiance would be nice ....

Vince Green Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 22.5 grains with an oz 1/8th load. Good powder, shouldn't have gone off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floating Chamber Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Make sure it IS 82. It should have a YELLOW disc fleck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
