scarecrow243 Posted June 12, 2021 Report Share Posted June 12, 2021 you have to use primers that are similar ie for same powder and shot load some primers are hot for magnums etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cookoff013 Posted June 12, 2021 Report Share Posted June 12, 2021 You can go crazy going over data. ive a little tip. Read the data. if you have load that has hot primer, light payload, and huge powder charge. Primer change will do nothing but wrong. if you have a light primer, light but high pressure load, the primer change might make it a little hotter in pressure, but not faster. Read. pull up powder data. where does it sit? powder makes map. Not primer. Research. after that, you got it. powder has a specific Kj/ mol of energy. It cant give up more than whats there. Its represented in data. You cant fudge that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daisyrob1 Posted June 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 Thanks guys the load is 25 grains green dot, 36g lead fibre wad so quite heavy I realise that both type of primers are classed as hot, will the 616 sit correctly in the nsi case? I'm hoping to get the load proofed clay & game charge £28 anybody tried this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cookoff013 Posted June 13, 2021 Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 that probably be alittle hot. alliant dont list 1,1/4oz lead loads. i think they did at one point. i`m not sure what the load you want is but it`ll be slow. might be a nice quality. load. my 1,1/4oz lead loads with A1 (similar burnrate and powder charge) is in a 3" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I've uped the powder buy 8% do you think it's to much? Cheers for your input👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cookoff013 Posted June 13, 2021 Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 Yeah, i think 8% is huge increase. Especially when the powder is pushing its maximum load. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
