Powder Compression

[Klaus]

Hi Klaus:

It seems that compression is as important to a "clean burn" and so better fouling control than most other variables and certainly different powders perform much differently with the same degree of compression (at least in my experience-which is minimal relative to other members here)

I personally am still seeking a "low 60's grain load" that will provide the same accuracy as the current 74 grain load that my rifle seems to like----------------the search and learning continues ---------slowly

Morning Dave,

thx for your reply

i have had some good results with 61 to 62 grs. and Goex FFg and the German Brand of WANO / Grafs Hunting Powder Nr. 1
Due to my humble opinion a charge about 61 or 62 grs with less compression will not burn "cleaner" than a load with 68 grs. and stronger compression
with the correct Lube and blow tubing i will be able to make 40 or more shoots without losing accuracy.
But pls note my range it limited to 100 m
