Question is does anyone know if 2208 would give anymore speed? (I know speed isnt everything)
And has anyone used a accubond at these speeds ?

If you like I could run some numbers through Quickload and compare a few powders for you.
Ill just need the average water capacity in grains of a few fired cases and your O.A.L of the loaded round.
to find the water capacity of a case weigh it then fill it with water to the top weigh it again and take the weight of the empty case from the fill one, it should be somewhere form 55Gr to 58Gr depending on the type of case.
